  • We in Tucson were lucky enough to have Susie Napper here to play and give some lessons

    using her magnificent Barak Normal bass viol.  A rare treat. This consort is fantastic!

  • Thank you so much for your input

  • Very Gideon Kremer-esque interpretation.

    Is this an audition for a movie sountrack?

    Savall or Fretwork let you hear the interplay and the line.

    These instruments are--notwithstanding--the cat's meow!

  • Actually William Byrd is the best English composer.

  • sias(hit accidentaly the touchpad...)

  • Very strange appearence for a viol player (gut at 5:28) hehehe. Please, upload more fanta

  • she said 1680

  • There are other players in the video whose names aren't given (but should be).

  • Did you say the instruments are from 1580?

    I thought it was Marin Marais (1656-1728)who added the 7th string to the gamba....

    Were the fantasias meant to be played in the acoustic of a resonant church?

    Look forward to hearing more of your work.

  • This was overwhelmingly wonderful. Could you please list the names of the viol players in this video?
