"Skip Sempé has given himself and Capriccio Stravagante something of a 25th-anniversary gift with this excellent, period performance rendering of the German composer Michael Praetorius ... The pleasure principle might be uppermost here, but that doesn't preclude a playful sophistication, as well as seductive sobriety. The players improvise exuberantly, as if at some Renaissance jam session; they are clearly having a ball".
