This collection of Renaissance Dances were arranged for a concert in the American Cathedral in Paris in 1987 for the Trinity Wind Orchestra. The ensemble was divided into small consorts and spread around the Cathedral so that the audience would be unaware from which direction the sound would be emerging for each movement. The conductor stood at the rear of the building out of sight of the audience, co-ordinating the performance and directing the "full band" movements whilst the smaller ensembles played their movements autonomously.

The original arrangement was for a small ensemble as follows: 4 Flautists doubling piccolos and recorders, 1 Oboe, 3 Bb Clarinets, 1 Bass Clarinet, 1 Alto Sax, 1 Tenor Sax, 2 Trumpets, 2 Horns, 1 Trombone, 1 Tuba and a percussionist. This version has been expanded to accommodate members of a full band but the piece may be played by the original sized ensemble. I have offered some scoring options in the small ensembles. The optional recorder parts may be given to your expert recorder players if you have them, rather than assuming that the flautists can also play the recorder.

The attached MP3 is of the complete set of dances. If you would like to hear individual movements, visit my website at www.aluncook.com
