Our first attempt at this sort of evening of music: all-in, anything goes ...
We're still enjoying the Red Book of Montserrat; and some other stuff too.
Our new piece for the evening was Tant con je vivrai, a virelai by 13th composer Adam de la Halle.
We're working our way through the Red Book of Montserrat, learning the pieces and then memorising them.
In attendance: Emrys, Cecelia, Katherine of Glastonbury
We played:
Voltati in Ca Rosina
Discussed learning Ly bens distonys as could be not too difficult to get to a danceable speed
The official Bransle
-Katherine top line (and chords)
-Emrys second
-Kelsie third (alto recorder)
Started playing this for the first time tonight. We'll practice trying to get speed a bit faster
Belle Qui
Black Almain
Red Book of Montserrat night again.
Lots from the Red Book of Montserrat, because we all felt like it
In attendance: Emrys, Cecelia, Katherine of Glastonbury
We played:
Belle Qui
Emrys top line
Cecelia and Katherine 3rd line (Katherine also adding chords)
We can play this at a danceable speed.
Washerwomen's Bransle

We'll need to speed this up a little so it could be danced to.
