A leading critic writes - "The amazing Pierrot, based mostly on the Lincolnshire - Yorkshire borders, with an outpost in Northampton too, plays an exciting mix of French and English-style traditional dance music - from driving bourrées to slower, seductive mazurkas.

| "Pierrot plays rather more than the usual range of instruments, and this adds to the rich and varying sound. You will hear fiddle, mandolin, hurdy-gurdy, clarinet and bass clarinet, melodeon and guitar, English bagpipes, djembe and occasional harp, bombarde and concertina, with more besides... |

"Pierrot
play mostly for dancing, and will give you a memorable
and entertaining experience. With their own caller, Pierrot
will lead you through a dazzling array of English and
European dances. You will not be able to stop yourself
having a superb time. "They also play for other occasions - far too many to list - to which they bring their own brand of dynamic and infectious music." |
