A groundbreaking feast of earthy humorous songs from 17th century restoration England, tastefully accompanied with cittern, hurdy-gurdy, Milanese mandolin, English guittar and bass colascione.
Bio / Background
Dante Ferrara has been performing popular renaissance and baroque entertainment since 1984. Based in the U.K., he has given concerts and performed worldwide mainly as a soloist. Since 1998 he has released two CDs of renaissance and Tudor music, featuring mainly the lute and orpharion. His third and latest CD Bazimakoo focuses on catches and rounds by Henry Purcell (1659-1695) and his contemporaries – the ‘Restoration Rat Pack’!
Bazimakoo combines earthy humour (sometimes sexual, sometimes lavatorial) with the finesse one would expect from the period. As well as providing all the voices, Dante uses a renaissance-style cittern and four antique instruments: hurdy-gurdy, Milanese mandolin, English guittar and bass colascione.
Bazimakoo is both groundbreaking and controversial. Some musicians have merely dabbled with this style of song but this is the first CD ever to feature this particular art form – the repertoire of The Catch Club.
