Three Courtly Dances

Featuring distinctive sounds from the Renaissance period, here is an attractive suite of three dances skillfully scored for young bands. The stately Allemande uses full band passages alternating with statements by thewoodwinds and brass. William Byrd's Pavana provides the lyric middle movement, while the lively dance Saltarello provides a rousing finish. Dur: 4:50 (Grade 2.5)
