Description
A rich tapestry of European music from the 13th-16th centuries, written and arranged by Edward Huws Jones for Violin and Piano. Includes the medieval Estampie Royale and the famous L’Homme Armé, Kemp’s Jig and Henry VIII’s favourite Pastime With Good Company via a rollicking Morris dance, a comical Bouree and more.
The Violin edition includes optional easy Violin part and Guitar chords, whilst the complete edition also includes both Keyboard and Violin accompaniments. Either format is highly flexible, which means the music can be played as solos, duets or trios as well as with larger ensembles.
Edwards Huws Jones has travelled extensively researching fiddle-playing traditions. In each book he explains the background of the particular musical style, giving his own suggestions for a lively performance!
