Susato

Country Renaissance Dances

The fascinating world of Renaissance music comes to life as your band performs this spirited setting of three dances from Susato's Danserye. Harmonic, rhythmic, and dynamic surprises abound as the piece begins with a light and delicate Ronde, continues with a lively boisterous Salterelle, and finishes with a stately grand Ronde/Aliud. This masterfully scored arrangement remains true to Susato's original while taking advantage of the many colors available in the modern concert band. Your developing players, and the audience as well, will be delighted by this journey into such an exhilarating time in music's history.
