Trumpet, flute and recorder trios

Submitted by Katherina Weyssin on July 31, 2012 - 12:22pm

Greg, Christine and Katherina have been playing trios, with whatever instruments we had to hand. That meant Christine on a flute on the top line, Greg on trumpet on the middle line (transposing as he went - we didn't have a B-flat version of the music for him), and Katherina on the bottom line on either flute or tenor recorder.

All the pieces we tried were from Twenty-one Pieces Transcribed by Erich Katz, 1400-1630 (in Katherine's red folder labelled "Ren trios").

We played:

  • "Pavana", from Libro de Musica, 1536, by Luis de Milan (piece #7, p9)
  • Flemish Song "Ich armes Schaf", from Souterliedekens", 1556, by Clemens non Papa (piece #17, p20)
  •  . . . and one more. Villancico "Damos Gracias", c.1492, by Franceso de la Torre? (#6, p8)
     

Greg and Christine: if you'd like a copy of these pieces, please ask Katherina

Update: Eleanor is now learning these too, so we can play them as flute trios.
