This volume
focuses on the medieval
period from approximately
the sixth to fifteenth
centuries. The music of
this era was
traditionally performed
as plainchant (sacred) or
monophony (secular), that
is, as a vocal melody,
here reserved for the
soprano recorder. Seeking
to emulate medieval
performance practice, the
20 tunes in this
collection are
accompanied by a single,
drone-like power or
5-chord to be played on a
modern-day stringed
instrument such as
guitar, mandolin or
banjo. These simple
troubadour songs are
ideal for beginners and
experienced players
alike, who want to be
transported back in time,
immersed in a bygone era
of music. .

Recorder
specialist Marcia Diehl
presents 41 favorite
melodies from the
Renaissance and early
Baroque periods, each
with suggested
accompaniment chords.
This era of music is
particularly attractive
on the recorder not only
because of its lyrical
qualities but also
because the recorder was
already one of the most
popular, accessible
instruments of the
day.
The
collection features many
dance tunes by
Praetorius, Susato,
Gervaise and John
Playford plus familiar
themes like
â??Greensleeves,â?
â??Drive the Cold Winter
Away,â? and Thomas
Morleyâ??s â??It Was a
Lover and His Lass,â?
which may have been used
contemporarily onstage
with William
Shakespeareâ??s As
You Like It. The
book closes with two
pieces by Beatrice de
Dia, a
trobairitz or
female troubadour who
wrote songs of
courtly
love.
