Bransle de Poictou / Pieds-en-l'Air

time6 mo agoview1 views

Sometimes Thoinot Arbeau only gave a very short extract of a tune in his book Orchésographie. In this video, I look at one of them, and how Peter Warlock turned it into a full piece for his Capriol Suite.

The arrangements are taken from my book, Music from Thoinot Arbeau's Orchésographie arranged for ocarina, which is available at https://preecemusic.com/orchesographie-ocarina/

In this video I play a Thorn Wych "Box" linear ocarina, and John Langley "Concert" pendant ocarinas.

Like all of my videos, the audio is recorded first on the instruments depicted and edited for timing and intonation, and the video is recorded separately and synced to the audio track, which is why it doesn't always match exactly!
