"The Farallon Recorder Quartet gives inspiring performances of a vast and varied repertoire extending across time and genre. Bach and Gershwin, Ockeghem and Serocki; sedate, wild, sublime, cutting edge and traditional, Farallon Recorder Quartet does it all with style.
Formed in 1996, the Farallon Recorder Quartet takes its name from the rugged Farallon Islands off the coast of San Francisco. The quartet applies extensive knowledge of performance practices to music from eleven centuries, reaching out to modern audiences in an accessible and exciting manner. Farallon has performed for the Phoenix Arizona Early Music Society, Bay Area Recorder Series, Atlanta Early Music Alliance, at the American Bach Soloists Summer Festival, and with world-renowned guest artist Marion Verbruggen. Farallon's debut CD, a collection of sacred and secular works by the 16th century composer Ludwig Senfl, was released January 21, 2005.
Farallon Recorder Quartet performs on numerous types of recorder from renaissance to modern, from sopranino to contrabass, from 6 inches to 6 feet tall. Dutch recorder builder Adriana Breukink made a set of ten renaissance recorders especially for Farallon. The quartet performs all its renaissance music on these spectacular instruments, creating a warm and wondrous tone of beauty.
While devoting much of their concert programs to renaissance and baroque music, Farallon Recorder Quartet is also active in performing 20th and 21st century music, both well established works, and newly composed pieces, some of which have been written for the ensemble."^^xsd:string
