Review by Sense the Adventure

Album Review: Music Of The 16th And 17th Centuries Volume 8: Catch That Catch Can Alright, let’s talk about this gem of an album. It’s not your usual playlist fodder—this is Catch That Catch Can, brought to life by The New York Catch Club under Saville Clark’s direction. Released on the Musical Heritage Society label, it dives deep into classical music from way back when—the 16th and 17th centuries. Yeah, that’s right, we’re talking ruffs, jigs, and probably some questionable dental hygiene here. But don’t let that fool ya; this stuff has soul. Now, I gotta say, there are two tracks that stuck with me like gum on a shoe: "The Nut Brown Lass" and "A Chiding Catch." Let me break it down for you. "The Nut Brown Lass" feels like stepping into a cozy pub in old England. You can almost smell the ale and hear someone laughing too loud in the corner. It’s got this playful vibe, but also something kinda sweet underneath. Like, whoever wrote it was smitten, you know? They weren’t trying to be fancy or show off—they just wanted to sing about how much they liked this girl. By the end, I found myself humming along, even though I had no clue what half the words meant. Then there’s "A Chiding Catch," which is basically the musical equivalent of getting roasted at a family dinner. It’s sharp, witty, and honestly kind of savage. I could picture people sitting around cracking up while singing this together. There’s something so human about it—it reminds you that people back then weren’t all serious monks chanting in candlelit rooms. Nah, they were messing around, poking fun, and living their lives, same as us. What really gets me about this album is how alive it feels. These songs aren’t museum pieces—they’re stories, jokes, and feelings wrapped up in notes. Listening to them makes you realize how little we’ve changed over the centuries. We still laugh, love, argue, and drink (well, most of us). But here’s the kicker: if you listen closely enough, you might start wondering… What would these composers think if they heard their music now? Would they be stoked that folks are still jamming to their tunes, or would they be confused because we’ve got synthesizers and autotune now? Either way, one thing’s for sure—they’d probably want us to grab a pint and sing along. So yeah, check out Catch That Catch Can. It’s quirky, heartfelt, and totally worth your time. Just don’t blame me if you end up googling “How to pronounce ‘Bartholomew Lane’” ten times.

About The New York Catch Club Under The Direction Of Saville Clark

"The New York Catch Club, the first of such clubs to be organized in the United States, is an active group of young singers and musicians under the direction of Saville Clark. This unique and utterly delightful group specializes in performing those witty catches and rounds that range innocently through English music from the 17th through the 18th centuries. To the select music lover, the private appearances of the The New York Catch Club are a gaily spiced recall to the lustily elegant humor of the English Restoration."
