Phantasm (music group)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Phantasm is a four member viol consort based in England founded in 1994 by Laurence Dreyfus. Their sound tends to be more "edgy" than that of other early music groups such as Fretwork.[citation needed]
They have recorded on the Channel Classics, GMN, Simax, and (currently) Avie Records.
