Den rige fugl
Gamle Sine
Jeg satte brillerne på min næse Jeg vil sende et krus
Karrusellen
Klare måne
Munken går i enge
Og gå så
Peter kommer hjem
Ræven i den store skov
Ræven lakked' ad bondens gård
Skaden sider på taget
Skære havre
Slukke, slukke lyset
Syv glade venner
Så jager vi bonden i gårde
Tag den ring og lad den vandre
Tre små blomster
Ville I vide og ville I forstå
Description :
All eighteen pieces in this collection are reliably dated to the reign of James I, and whether by named composers or anonymous ones, appear in sources other than the notable Virginal books preserved in the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge. The contents demonstrate the variety of forms in the Keyboard repertoire of this period, from plainsong-based compositions to dances by Orlando Gibbons. The ' Pretty ways for young beginners to look on ', possibly by Thomas Tomkins, are a fascinating example of music contemporary to the time, written with the didactic purpose of instructing musicians in the techniques of counterpoint.
