@@LukeSilverstar1000 Thanks for the comment, Luke. I'm glad my channel was your introduction to early music. Hope you continue to discover more great historic music.

@@telemachus53 I'm very sorry. It's not me who puts the ads on, it's the label that released the album. I'd highly recommend Newpipe or RUclips Vanced for ad-free listening without paying RUclips for the privilege.

@@StockhausenScores I believe you're right

@@CradleofValentine666 Yes, so much of this is extremely whistle-able. Extreme ear-worms.

You're very welcome! Glad it brings you so much joy.

I agree.

Stimmt.

My sentiments exactly. I have absolutely no idea who this early music orchestra is. They're listed as "Musica Antiqua", but there are many early music groups called that. And I've also seen them credited as "The Renaissance Music Players". I'd like to know when this was recorded. Sounds like it's probably '60s but it could easily be earlier. I'll probably put up more of this orchestra soon. I think they're brilliant. By the way, your Greensleeves variation is sublime.

@@RenaissanceEarCandy wow, thanks!

I found a little bit about it, which I'll paraphrase here. This tune and the accompanying country dance directions ("For four") were first published together under the title "The Parson's Farewell" by John Playford in the first edition of his 'The English Dancing Master' (1651), however, the melody clearly predates Playford’s publication. Sam Bayard (in his article “A Miscellany of Tune Notes”) found an earlier version of the melody in the Skene Manuscript (c. 1615, No. 14) under the title “Ostend.” Early versions also appear in Adriaen Valerius Nederlandtsche Gedenck-Clanck (1626, as “La Boree”), the Starter’s Friesche Lust-Hof (1621), and the Thysius Lute book (c. 1600); the first two works refer to the tune as a bourrée. It has been sourced to France, where, for example, it appears in a lute collection by Nicolas Vallet entitled Secret des Muses (1615), as “Bouree d’avignon.” The late 17th century Philidor Collection also contains the melody with the same title. As “La Bourée” it was included in Michael Praetorius’s (1571-1621) Terpsichore (1612, No. 32), and as “Stil, stile en reys” (Hush, hush a moment) in Jacob van Eyck’s Der Fluyten Lust-hof. The title in the van Eyck volume refers to a song by Jan Starter that was printed in his aforementioned Friesche Lust-Hof, although it had earlier been published in Boudewijn Hansen Wellens’ ‘t Vermaeck der Jeught (1616)--both volumes give “De nieuwe Laboré” (The New Bourrée) as the indicated melody for the song.

@@RenaissanceEarCandy Thank you very much for finding the origin of the song for me. Then this tune was a well-known Western European hit in the 16th century, in today's terms, and, as I can see, it was a hit for a long time. I'm not even surprised, because it's a very, very magical tune, it really enchanted me! Ever since I heard this tune in -Black Sails, - can't stop listening to it, I wake up at least once a day to listen to it. Amazingly beautiful music! It makes me sad that I can't play an instrument, because if I could I would always play this tune. Thank you very much again, have a nice day.

You're very welcome! More music coming soon.

Have you listened to the earlier album called "Two Renaissance Dance Bands" with the Early Music Consort of London, led by the late David Munrow? It would be interesting to hear your impressions or comparisons.

Zink (Cornet), Rankett, Tympani, Krummhorn.Violin

Well, that's Spotify for you. I guess it can give you medieval vibes without actually being medieval. Well, that's my understanding of the word vibes anyway.

The Susato cd is also up on my channel but it hasn't got the album cover as the picture. I used a different picture with each piece of music. A picture that I thought matched each piece.

I really liked those pictures.@@RenaissanceEarCandy
