"Exceptional......Sue Tyson and Kristine Szulik played many different parts with frequent switches of costume and accent [which] provided a vivid context for the music.......Full of gallows humour, so that the audience found the show very entertaining in spite of the sombre subject". 
(Leighton Buzzard Advertiser on Danse Macabre)

"Singing exemplary, with stunning blends......Acting convincing, whether they're priests or prostitutes......Entertaining and informative show, appealing to lovers of early music, and would travel well to schools".
(Chester Standard on Danse Macabre)

".......Let me comment a new, young group of three singers and a lutenist calling itself la Brigata.  Its Early Music Network tour reached the Wigmore Hall last week.  The programme of early fifteenth century Venetian music was melliflously delivered.....".
(Stephen Pettitt:  The Times on The Lion of St Mark Comes to Land)

"Music that usually remains in the pages of history books was brought to life at Norwich Arts Centre.....The performers gave a fascinating recital of early fifteenth century Venetian music, as part of the Early Music Network.  All three singers had clear, true voices and were fully attuned to the music's demands.  They treated it not as some academic curiosity, but as warmly expressive and alive, savouring the intricately interwoven melodies and piquant harmonies".
(Ross Winstone:  Eastern Evening News on The Lion of St Mark Comes to Land)

"Much of the music is unaccompanied and cruelly exposed, but the ensemble displayed an acute sense of pitch and well nigh perfect intonation.....la Brigata kept their most entertaining item to the end, a piece by Magister Zacharius which wore a variety of Venetian street cries into the texture".
(Rex Bawden:  Liverpool Daily Post on The Lion of St Mark Comes to Land)

"Infectious medieval fun".
(Birmingham Post on Danse Macabre)

"Noah's Flood was the most successful section".
