"The World As It Was - Renaissance Music from the Continent" will feature a wide range of music for early brass and woodwind instruments, from early to late Renaissance. The group will play sacred and secular music on slide trumpet, shawm, cornett, sackbut, curtal, gittern and recorders. The music comes from countries all over the European continent, including Italy, France, Spain and Germany and Flanders and will range from the very popular to the obscure. You will get to hear about our instruments in detail and enjoy a "close-up" look at them as well.
The Whole Noyse is celebrating its 30th year as one of the country's leading early brass ensembles. Specializing in performing music of the Renaissance and early Baroque, The Whole Noyse focuses on the combination of cornetts, sackbuts and curtal, instruments that made up the primary professional wind group of the 16th and 17th centuries. In keeping with the versatility expected of wind players of the period, the ensemble also doubles on recorders, flutes, and crumhorns and often mixes in the sounds of shawm, slide trumpet, gittern, violin, and viola.
Concerts by The Whole Noyse both in Europe and across North America have been enthusiastically received. The group has collaborated with some of North America's most respected early music ensembles, including Magnificat, The King's Noyse, The Newberry Consort, and Sex Chordae Consort of Viols, as well as a number of choirs, including the Vancouver Cantata Singers, Pro Coro Canada, San Francisco Choral Artists, AVE, and the California Bach Society. In 2010, the 400th anniversary of Monteverdi's Vespers of 1610, The Whole Noyse was invited to participate in more than 15 performances of that monumental work in cities around the US and Canada, including San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Diego, Austin, Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, Vancouver, Calgary, and Honolulu.
