Music session - 14th November 2017
Present:
Katherine of Glastonbury, harp
Elyna Delynor, lever harp
Emily of Ildhafn, soprano recorder
Sympkyn of the Moor, hammered dulcimer
William de Cameron, tenor recorder
Tunes played:
Started with a couple of familiar old measures:
- Earl of Essex Measures
The Joseph Casazza arrangement, starts on a G and has an F# in the melody.
- Lorrayne Almain
Also the Joseph Casazza arrangement, starting on a G and with F#.
Then:
- Ballo del Fiore
and
- Il Canario
As previously mentioned both are good improvising pieces and ideally played without dots.
- Pease Bransle
Starts on a C, no sharps or flats. Unlikely some other bransles, this doesn't seem to lend itself to speeding up as we go.
Finally we played through
- Cantiga 36
- Cantiga 119
just to remember how nice they are.
