[MR] Calling All Dancers

[C. Brian Towey]

What dance would you do to this tune?

It's a galliarde by Pierre Attaingnant (c. 1494 - c. 1552), originally
written for the lute.  Many years ago, the Houston Baroque Ensemble played
it as our wedding march.  I think it would be very romantic to actually do
the dance, if only I knew what dance to do!  This guitarist plays the A
figure (verse) twice and the B figure (refrain) once.  I think for dancing,
it would more likely be ABAB.

 

Your servant,

 

Charles Fleming
