Sackbut journeys

I'm pleased to see that top sackbut player Adam Woolf has launched a website. There are lots of bits of information on there about his various playing activities, including Oltremontano, the early music / jazz / gypsy (etc) fusion group, his great chamber group Caecilia Concert and of course, His Majestys Sagbutts and Cornetts.


I've also recently been heavily involved in launching a group based on sackbuts and cornetts called La Spiritata. The music is tremendous, and it's a fantastic experience experimenting with it and presenting it to audiences, many of whom will not have heard much of it before.
