Hey all,

Since there was a positive response from the "Le Greygnour Bien", I decided to
do another medieval piece, this time, an anonymous author, a lovely little
dance.

This one again really showcases the fantastic "Early Patches":
(http://www.sumerauer.de/early_patches/dokumentation/english/index2.htm).
The soundfont patches used were 2 Nyckelharpa (a bowed string instrument), a
Glockenspiel, Kortholt (a nasal reed instrument), Kobliczek recorder,
Hammered dulcimer, & Kettle Drum.

The tuning is a 12-note linear temperament related to Peppermint very closely,
but not quite. The fifth size is (56/11)^(1/4), so that four fifth give a
pure 14/11. This suits Medieval music quite well, as Margo Schulter is quite
keen in observing.

Enjoy!

-Aaron
