Plans for the May 16 meeting

[cantabile] Plans for the May 16 meeting

This is a drop-in meeting, although we will be doing some
exploration of pieces that we might play on the June 21
program. You can edit the tentative list at the
wiki playlist. Here’s the current version:

• Ingalls, Night Thought
• Instrumental fantasias, solos, and duets
• Ravenscroft, My fearful dreams
• Dowland Set
  • Come, Heavy Sleep
  • Come again
  • Thinkst thou then by thy fayning
  • Rest awhile, you cruel cares
  • Sleep, wayward thoughts
  • Awake sweet love

We have two Jenkins Pavanes that Bonnie set for us, which she
thinks will go well on the large recorders.

Schedule

We’ll be meeting every Tuesday for the forseeable future. The
meetings start promptly at 7:45, and are at my place, 233
Broadway, Cambridge.

The May
meetings will probably all be dropin and the first three June meetings will
probably be limited to people playing the June 21 gig. Please
feel free (encouraged, pressured…) to come to the dropin
meetings if you’re thinking of playing the gig, and also free
(encouraged…) if you aren’t thinking of playing it but would
be interested in the music.

June 21 plans

I’m trying out a new Wiki technology on the plans for this gig. This
one is a real Wiki, that anyone can edit. It’s at http://www.laymusic.org/dreams06/.
I especially need to know who’s thinking of playing on this
program. You aren’t making a hard and fast commitment yet, but
obviously we can’t program 5-part pieces if only 3 people are even
thinking of doing the gig.

Last meeting

We played:

• Susato
• Purcell Fantasia 7
• Vive la serpe
• More Susato
