Two Dances from Capriol Suite

Johnnie Vinson has expertly adapted two movements from this well-known suite by Peter Warlock based on 16th-century dance music. "Basse-Dance" is a stately and moderate tempo dance in 3/4, while "Mattachins" is an energetic sword dance in 2/4. The unique stylings, and at times unusual harmonies, have been preserved in these delightful setting for beginning players. (2:20)
