Fickle, Robin Arioto, Renaissance Gems
This book is an excellent collection of some of the most famous Renaissance compositions from England, France, Flanders, Italy and Spain. Included are many of John Dowland's most celebrated pieces for the lute as well as folk songs, rounds, ballads and songs of courtly love by other renowned composers. Most of these pieces have never before been arranged for harp. These elegant arrangements are for the easy intermediate to advanced level player. Most are written in the keys of G, C, D and F and a couple are in B flat and A. Where key changes occur both pedal and lever harp markings are clearly indicated and some fingerings are also noted. The book includes informative biographies of composers and anecdotal notes on the compositions. 86 pages Contents England Anonymous The Famous Ratketcher Searching for Lambs Strawberry Leaves The Tailor and the Mouse Watkin's Ale Allison, Richard (c. 1560/70-1610) The Batchelar's Delight The Ladye Frances Sidney's Almain Bartlett, John (fl. 1606-1610) Of All the Birds That I Doe Know Byrd, William (c.1540-1623) John Come Kisse Me Now Campion, Thomas (1567-1620) Faine Would I My Love Disclose I Care Not For These Ladies Move Now With Measured Sound Deloney, Thomas (c. 156?-1600) Daphne Dowland, John (1563-1626) Captain Digorie Piper, His Galliard Galliard to Lachrimae John Dowland's Galliard Mr. Knight's Galliard Mrs. Clifton's Almain Most Sacred Queen Elizabeth, Her Galliard My Lady Hunsdon's Puffe My Lord Willoughbie's Welcome Home The Right Honorable Robert, Earl of Essex, His Galliard The Shoemaker's Wife, A Toy Johnson, John (c. 1545-1594) The Flatt Paven Morley, Thomas (1557/58-1602) It Was a Lover and His Lass Nicholson, Richard (fl. 1595-1635) The Jewes Dance Ravenscroft, Thomas (c. 1582/92-c. 1635) There Were Three Ravens We Be Soldiers Three Yonder Comes a Courteous Knight Tarleton, Richard (born?-1588) Tarleton's Jigg France Anonymous Pavane Lesquercarde Claudin de Sermisy (c. 1490-1562) Las!
