Program Notes

This work picks up four songs from the Dance Collection published by Tielman Susato (c. 1500-1562) as volume 3 in 1551. It consists of four movements, the 1st movement Mall Dance, the 2nd movement Guyardo, the 3rd movement Rondo and the 4th movement Bass Dance.

We have arranged it so that it can be enjoyed easily, considering that it can be played at. Please devise the composition in each band and taste the Renaissance masterpiece.

I expect a relaxed performance that captures the characteristics of each dance.
