Scarborough Fair/Canticle Duet
Quote:
1) dropped the introduction 2) made the final 22 measures into a DC al Fine to conserve space 3) used some of the harmonies from the last 22 measures in the first 22 4) transposed the key from the original E Minor to D Minor to improve Recorder sound 5) in measure 74, changed the note on beat 2 to a D, instead of a low A, which would be below the Soprano's range (originally a B below the staff in E Minor) 6) included the lyrics as a reading cue to help in knowing when to enter 7) reduced the font size Interestingly, the published music differs in places from the recorded music. In those places where I could pick it out from the recording, I have used that version. There's a lot of the beautiful background accompaniment that couldn't be included for two voices, but I think it plays pretty well. If you remove the lyrics, you can increase the font size for readability. We are having a lot of fun playing this piece. I hope you will, also. Ralph Rayner |
