Our Take

Gerard de Wit teams up with the Dutch Baroque Orchestra for an album that is as grandiose as it is confusing. "Klankdocument Familie Van Noordt" takes listeners on a wild ride through 17th-century Dutch music, with de Wit's distinctive flair and the orchestra's bombastic accompaniment.

The album begins with a bang on "Intrada Marantha," a stirring introduction that sets the tone for the rest of the record. De Wit's virtuosic playing is on full display here, weaving intricate melodies that are both captivating and perplexing.

Tracks like "Allemande Cornets 1 en 2" showcase the ensemble's tight-knit chemistry, with each member of the orchestra shining in their own right. The intricate interplay between the instruments is a joy to behold, with moments of pure magic sprinkled throughout.

However, the album is not without its missteps. "Courant Cornets 1 en 2" feels disjointed and lacks the cohesion of the other tracks, leaving listeners scratching their heads in confusion.

Overall, "Klankdocument Familie Van Noordt" is a mixed bag. While Gerard de Wit and the Dutch Baroque Orchestra certainly have talent to spare, the album ultimately falls short of its lofty ambitions. Fans of 17th-century Dutch music may find something to love here, but for the casual listener, this one may be a pass.
