Renaissance Consort No. 5

[gnuwave]

Did anyone else find the framing off-putting? I loved the music, dancers, and costumes, but by the middle of the film, I was suffering from vertigo because of the bizarre camera angles and framing parallelograms. Other than that, applause and pure delight.

[honneferjung]

Renaissancemusik - mi dieser tollen Optik erst recht - macht süchtig - man fühlt sich ins 16. Jahrhundert versetzt! Excellent!

[XaiGunn]

NO SUGAR TONIGHT 1970

[celebration81]

@Fladavenue The title is Fladavenue's mother is bitch

[cartaphylus]

mi a címe az első nótának?

what's the title to the first song?

[DameEleanor]

I'm glad you taped and posted this, but the tilted camera and the overdone video effects are annoying and don't add anything. I wish it would have been filmed more plainly, but your mileage may vary.

[marbo1967]

Has someone the URL for the sheetmusic of the first song? I play the soprano (descant) recorder. I probably would be able to transpose this tune. Please please help moi. Marc

[monmon6329]

it is awesome

[WuToBo]

yannick zimber stinkt!

[umbalaba]

This is awesome!

[abacous81]

are they hungarians!!! for me they are italians!!!

[Zozzerr]

Yeah. The dancers on this video are Italians. So are the

clothes also. This is only a short piece of their hour long

performance and it would have been difficult to change clothes I guess...

But anyway, the melodies are one of the finest masterpieces of the renaissance traditions of the

Hungarian Kingdom.

[astraeos]

Do you know where I can get a copy of this hour performance? The music is absolutely amazing and the choreography is fantastic. I would love to be able to watch this in its entirety.  Please let me know if you have any information. I'd be most grateful.

[Zozzerr]

Sorry, I don't have it.

But at least you can see other parts

of the performance here in the youtube if you click to the

related videos. No.6 and No.7.

[szappanTRT]

@Zozzerr

the dancers are hungarian (Pavane táncegyüttes, Szeged), but the clothes are rather Italian, indeed. :)

[Parmafoi]

Do they have some CD or DVD that is available?

The Music Consort and the choreography are very fine.

Thank You for posting - I am ilustrating a book for children about ancient dances, and it helped me a lot

[gangafam]

GAJAGAM ABSOLUTLY LOVES IT

[fecopapa75]

Tök jó zene!

:)

Szeretem a magyar reneszánsz zenét!

:)

[dellaroux]

Leg lifts are too high and the gestured kick is too balletic. The sources show a less pointed foot and suggest a more pedestrian gestural vocabulary for this period. Otherwise, gorgeous costuming and a lovely awareness of the fluid, undulating quality the early sources call for.

[heavnnnsent]

When I hear this, I think of Henry the 8th plotting to be-head another wife.

[oliaiguambfigues76]

@heavnnnsent I'm sooooo bored with you brits and your soap-operas that pose as history.

[heavnnnsent]

@oliaiguambfigues76 .... huh? I'm not a Brit. And I'm truly sorry if you are bored, that makes me feel so sad for you!

[heavnnnsent]

These people knew have a good time, without getting too loud or disturbing their neighbors.

[Itsine]

This leaves me "Hungarian" for more!

[Kievest]

Simple steps and patterns but elegantly

beautiful and marvelous music. Thank

you for this fascinating contribution!

[InnateNobility]

Omg, I love Hungarian culture. <3

[PestisNigra]

Thanks a lot.

Me too, by the way ;)

[ravaabyee]

i have watched this many times. it is great

[Alberad08]

Very delightful, especially (for me as a musician) the improvisations/diminuzioni the first flute player does when repeating the melodies - bravissimo!

[wendychenchen]

does anyone know who composed this? i kinda need to know for a project im doing. thanks!

[heavnnnsent]

Wendy, I am not completely sure about this, but I think Dolly Parton may have composed this one.

[lucinaranjo]

muy bueno, me encanto.

[Zozzerr]

... and one of the best performance of the Locse virginal I have ever heard...

[fliedermops]

Hi everybody, the dances are basically from Thoinot Arbeau's manuscripts and some like the Canario from Fabritio Caroso or Cesare Negri. In the course of time there were many variations of course and I think that even these three only recorded what was in fashion at the time. I just found these videos by chance. I like the dancers! I'm in a dance group as well (Saltarello Heidelberg, Germany). I wish we could meet. It would be so much fun to learn each others variations! Keep up the good work!

[Zozzerr]

The Locse virginal bbok is from around 1650-1670. (The music might be dated earlier, but it is hard to follow back.) The The writer of the book is unknown, and might not be the same as the author(s) of these dances. Basically this music fits o the row of the late renaissance virginal music of Hungary and generally Central Europe.

[PapagenoHannover]

This is so good. LOVE YOU

[PapagenoHannover]

VERY GOOD:::BRAVO...Excellent performance. Happy to see and hear this

[byf43]

Very nice music, I like it!

[dodiezresibemol]

Great music and dances, too bad about the effects... I would love to see the clip much more clear! Great anyway!

[booklover181]

I wish you could upload this video without all the "special" effects. The last dance especially would look much better with it.

[julijaaaa]

Wonderful dances and music.. do you have the name of this piece and the composer?

[Kossuth1956]

Szia !Ezek nagyon jók és látom Magyarországon (Hungary) vették fel.Kik játszanak és kik a szereplők???

Köszi, hogy feltetted.Amennyiben van még, várom nagyon a többit.

[asvnoyi]

Well rehearsed show.  Great video!

[Searle8]

Shades of David Munrow once again...keep up the good work!!

[bubbelah]

16th century! 17th century was the baroque

[Elhardt]

I'm not sure what the lol is about because bubbelah is correct. The 17th century was the baroque era. The 15th and 16th centuries were the renaissance era. The medieval was before the renaissance, so you've got your time periods confused.

[TilmannBedey]

yes ... all right

[Montyleeny14]

I think so...

[PestisNigra]

Theoretically you are right. However, one can observe a definite lag in the Hungarian Kingdom and Transilvaniae : the music in the XVII. century looks alike that of the early XVI. century.

The dances above are from the Codex of Lőcse. Lőcse is located the north of the Hungarian Kingdom and was known of its rich citizens. The Codex may have played the similar role as the Derde Boexen of Tylman Susato in the middle of the XVI. century : was meant for wealthy citizens as an entertainment.

[stears81]

Codex of Lőcse also contained older dances

[Hastatius]

In Hungary the baroque came later,so the 17.c. was late renaissance here :)

[Lawander1000]

I think the case is different here. There is a copy from the 17th c. but when was the originals composed ? 100-200 years eralier ????

[stears81]

The Hungarian book is much latter than the dances. For better understand, read the Hungary article on wikipedia.

[madaraszi]

??? lol :D

[stears81]

it is simply not true. The baroque arrived on time in Habsburg-Hungary. Baroque arrived later only in the territorries of turkish occupation and transylvania

[Luthval]

Much better without modern drums and electric guitars... ;-)

[Montyleeny14]

Fantastic Music, i love medieval music
