"Drawing on its rich repertoire of traditional Celtic music as well as
Italian and Spanish diversions, the sextet moved back and forth
between the sublime and the stirring, juxtaposing poignant airs and
courtly melodies with vibrant jigs, reels and cantigas.... the
ensemble had no difficulty fashioning an alternately lyrical and
lively soundtrack, one that made colorful use of hand percussion,
fiddle, oboe, recorder, Scottish small pipes, Celtic harp and viola da
gamba."
The Washington Post
"... a lovely blend of instrumental music on A Winter's Night....The
most charming aspect of the collection, however, is the way the
Ensemble Galilei weaves all of these melodies into a 55-minute
tapestry broken only by an
enthusiastic audience response between each piece."

"Ancient Noels is one of the years' best...a mystical majesty fuels
both stately medieval processionals, sprightly Dutch and Basque
carols."
The Washington Post
"Medieval and Renaissance tunes, beautifully rendered..." San
Francisco Bay Guardian "Members of the Ensemble Galilei consider the
pursuit of this ancient music as a labor of love."

Galilei, Dirty Linen review
"A Universe of Dreams -- a multimedia
collaboration with gifted student-writers including the UM College
Park Scholars, found the Annapolis-based chamber group deftly
orchestrating a series of spoken-word pieces concerning the universe,
creation and other cosmic matters. Reflective, poetic and witty by
turns, the student-penned-and-recited contributions often inspired
string-woven atmospherics, which complemented a running slide show
that offered the audience a Hubble-eye view of space." -- The
Washington Post
