Four bransles from France by Claude Gervais, a French composer who was active in Paris for about 20 years (1540-1560 or so). SATB at a fairly quick clip, since a Bransle is an athletic peasant dance.

Christoph Demantus was a German composer of the late 14th and early 15th centuries.This piece was done STT with tambourine. I reprised the last couple of sections to get some more crunchy percussion in. The Recorder Book dates this dance to 1601, but I don't know how they came up with that date.
