Review:
Now here's something different! Two dances by Michael Praetorius, from the French court of Henry V, for bells and optional woodwind sextet or recorder consort. The first, "Spagnoletta", is for bells and drum/tambourine. The second, "Volte", is for bells and drum (percussion parts are included with the bell score). Parts for woodwind sextet and recorder consort are available separately.
Woodwind sextet parts include: flute, oboe, clarinets 1 & 2 (French horn may be substituted for 2nd clarinet), bassoon, and bass clarinet. Cues are notated for woodwinds in the handbell score.
Recorder consort parts include: soprano, alto, tenor, bass, great bass, & contrabass recorders. Cues are notated for recorders in the handbell score.
