about

Fairie Round is a galliarde, one of many composed by the prolific English composer Anthony Holborne (c. 1545-1602) and published in the extravagently named Pavans, Galliards, Almains and other short Aeirs, both grave and light, in five parts, for Viols, Violins, or other Musicall Winde Instruments (1599). Holborne was very popular in his day, writing tuneful dance music for the Elizabethan nobility. Among his most popular pieces, the Fairie Round was originally written for a consort of five instruments. Lael leads the three recorders in our arrangement (reduction by Bill), with harp and percussion accompanying.

​

Bill: tenor recorder, soprano recorder
Gwen: harp
Amy: jingles, dumbek
Penny: tenor recorder
Lael: tenor recorder, soprano recorder
