Praetorius with traps

This is the ballet from the last post with a drum track added on the MBR. The Micro Boss sports 327 drum kit rhythms with names like "HEAVY1" and "H.Hp1". I decided I needed to understand this part of the device, so I picked a few random ones and made an arrangement with them. Alas, the patterns are *all* 4/4, so they're assuming that modern pop is only in 4. Who knew? I reckon this proves that I should use my talents for Good instead of Evil.

Michael Praetorius's "Ballet", presumably from _Terpsichore_, 1612. This is from Recorder Consort 4. SATB recorders.

From Recorder Consort 4. Naudot was a French composer, flutist, and typesetter. This I believe is from one of his flute concertos, although I can't be sure. From Recorder Consort 4; duet for 2 alto recordcers

An arrangement for SST recorders of Thomas Morley's famous canzonet from Recorder Consort 4 ( Steve Rosenberg, Boosey & Hawkes, 1995). My first attempt at editing out a page turn in Audacity. Not wholly successful. You can hear the top Soprano seem to come in a little early 'cause I didn't leave quite enough silence in. Hmm.

This dance is usually attributed to Henry Purcell. This version is close to what we'll play end of March.

This is my take on what we'll be performing at the end of March. I saved the tracks if anyone's interested in MM1 playing.
