Medieval
and Renaissance Dances for Recorders, Dancers, and Hand Drums by Isabel McNeill Carley
Book Description: Processionals, Carols, Farandoles, Branles,
and Pavanes by the ancient ones that prove those folks in ruffles had a
good time. So will your students. These lively period pieces will enhance
school programs, complement language arts or European history units, and
provide music for Renaissance Arts Fairs or Madrigal Dinners. The pieces
are set for soprano recorders with optional tenor parts, hand drums, triangles
or finger cymbals. Dances are easy to learn line, circle, and partner dances
with clear instructions and diagrams. Pieces can be performed without dancers
too. You will value the Hand Drum Tutor—4 pages of exercises and “tunes”
to help develop the two-tone hand drum technique used in the arrangements.
Tunes are from England, France, Hungary, Germany, and Spain. The four carols
have Latin, Middle English, and modern English lyrics—perfect for expanding
the scope of holiday programs. A student book containing all recorder parts
in large print is included.
