I listen to a lot of medieval music - ever since I took a music history class in college 25 years ago. I really like your playing and this is a wonderful dance piece.
John Renbourn realized some video tutorials and a book of tabs called - if my memory is correct - Celtic and Medieval Tunes.The LP record was titled The Lady and the Unicorn.The publisher of the written music(tabs and score) was Stephen Grossmann.Best wishes, Fabyr.
Thank you very much for your comment. This is one of the early videos of my channel and the quality ( audio and video ) was very low indeed. Maybe one day I'll try again with a better uploading. Cheers
I think the best tab of this tune is the one by John Renbourn, very clear and simple to read . John plays in open tuning, therefore his version of this song has a different fingering from mine. I suppose you'll be able to find John's tablatures through his site.Best regards.
Thanks for your comment and appreciation. The guitar is a Rodriguez classic-electric. Yamaha and Takamine are also very good , I 've played on those guitars too. Best regards.
I suggest you to search for JohnRenbourn's version: he did also a good tab for this and others medieval tunes. Of course his version is much better than mine: he is a living legend...I'm not. Learn from the best masters. John Renbourn recorded this piece in The lady and the unicorn.
Thanks a lot! I'm going to add a video about medieval music score next Sunday. Here. If I'm not wrong John Renbourn has already published- years ago- a collection of these tunes arranged for guitar ( score and tabs ). But in his version the guitar must be prepared and used with special open tunings ( that I don't use ). Regards.
Soon I'll add a video about the score of medieval tunes. Composer unknown, as for most medieval songs and dances. Try a research in the web :Jacopo da Bologna, Orlando di Lasso and Jaufre' Rudel can be a good start to find music score of the Middle Age.Then you'll find right connections to this piece. Regards.
I have been watching this video continually since I found it, I love the arrangement. I would greatly appreciate it if you could send me the score. That would be wonderful and I would have a new song to play and relax to after a stressful day at work. Thank you in advance.
Thanks for your comment. I'll send the score , but it's for recorder or guitar and recorder. I haven't got a version for guitar solo but you can easily modify the simple version of the score as most guitarists do. Reading and watching is the best way to learn.Greetings.
Io questo pezzo lo conosco col nome di Trotto, so che il Saltarello è diverso.. comunque è ugualmente stupendo, me ne sono innamorata nel film LadyHawke e finalmente lo posso sentire quando voglio^^
Grandissimo Fabyr..fantastica esecuzione...mi piacerebbe molto avere uno spartito del pezzo, anche se credo sia riarrangiato da te. Comunque non posso che farti i miei complimenti. 5 stelle ; )
I learnt this piece some centuries ago when I was...sigh...young just listening to a group that was performing in my town. Then I became a music teacher and played this for fun.
Thanks,muchas gracias! I'm from Italy.I play this song just for fun,it's an italian dance of the Middle Age. How long does it take to learn this? Well...ten minutes is too much? : )
I've heard this played with tin whistle and hurdy-gurdy. It was excruciating. This is much better. This is lovely. You could actually dance to this instead of just cringing and screaming.
Thank you so much for sharing such a powerful music, and well played.
I've somehow started to learn how to play on an electric bass, and i'm trying to find unusual tabs for bass, instead of what everyone plays... like nirvana or other bands that everyone knows how to play.
So i thought that saltarellos and "ancient" music would be a good change a bass player... The problem is that i can't find any tabs for it... sigh.
That was really awesome. I'd like to ask your opinion as teacher of musicology on this :D
If I were to go back in time to the 14th century and play a blues or rock song, do you think the people of that time would consider it amazing and incredible and revolutionary or would they just "not get it". Did rock music just appear because "it was time"?
Thank you for watching my video and for your intelligent question.What I can say is that in ancient music there's more " modernity and progressive "than in many pieces of our days.Technology opens new prospectives BUT...how much modern rock was just TAKEN from ancient music and turn into rhythmic seq.? Musician of the pre-bachian period were courageous experimentators. Ciao from Italy.
Grazie,novembrine1. Non ho mai sentito la versione dei Dead Can Dance, ma lo farò se la trovo. Un cordiale saluto e grazie per la visita a questo video.
John Renbourn and other acoustic guitar masters have published tabs for these pieces BUT...special tunings for guitar, while I use (here) standard tuning.
Well...I just hear and play, no need written music. Anyway I know that John Renbourn has published tablatures and score of medieval and celtic music. But he often uses special tunings ( I don't ).
Thanks for your comment. As a teacher of musicology I can assure that the right title of this piece is Saltarello. I don't use open tuning and never use tabs, sorry. For Trotto see my oth.video
Very good job!
