Courante

A corrente From Banchetto Musicale ( Johann Schein, 1617). SSA8TB.   This guy didn't live too very long, but he wrote some pretty OK music.   From Winter Music Festival 2011.

Es steht ein Lind' in jenem tal

Caspar Othmayr was a German priest who died in 1553. This piece is slated for Loud Band at Winter Music Festival 2011.  SATB recorders

Courante

A courante by Michael Praetorius from Recorder Consort 4.  SSTB. Experimenting with breaths here, not always successfully.

The White Cockade (4 part)

A 4-part arrangement of The White Cockade, from _Thirteen_Stars_ ( John S. Kitts-Turner, Susato Press, 2005).  This is probably the last White Cockade I will do for a while.

The White Cockade (Trio)

A trio arrangement of _The_White_Cockade, from _Thirteen_Stars_ ( Joh S. Kitts-Turner, Susato Press 2005).  SAT; the top line is the same as the previous arrangement, but the two accompanying lines change.

The White Cockade

An American Revolutionary tune. This is an SA duet, spiced with some silly drums.

Courtly Masking Ayres #8

One of a series of dances by John Adson, 15th Century English composer.  SSATTB. Done in a hotel on batteries, so no noise correction was necessary. Phew.

Pastime with Good Company

A famous royal catch.  SA8ATB with tambourine.  You can really get a Wall of Sound feel goin' by layering a lot of instruments.

Ah Robin, Gentle Robin

An add-on round from 1501 or so.  STB with the tenor first.

Doulce Memoire

A chanson by Pierre Sandrin, a 16th century French composer.  This involved a page turn, which I edited out in Audacity.
