Harpsichord Solo: My Lady Carey's Dompe

[jdragonmo5]

You should make a power metal band :$ hahaha I would love it

You are awesome :)

[MsIrisSantos]

I think I just had an epiphany.

[hbmp88]

Ahhh I love these late medieval early rennaissance songs!

[C6H12B26]

Excellent ! I have Renaissance lute versions which are not bad, too.

Great thanks !

[Kurtlane]

It's a beautiful piece very well played.

But what is Dompe?

[diozent]

Is this considered Renaissance music?

[electrickithara]

That's really nice! What does dompe (or dump) mean?

[pendragonU]

@electrickithara Catherine of Aragon is been dumped, back to Spain with her? It had to be anonymous because the mockery came from her husband. The Tudor Bluebeard

[Dudin4tor]

I wish we knew the author, maybe he/she wrote other good songs.

[mikegv13]

A beautiful song and a brilliant performance. Well done!

[Achorafa]

Always Something uniquely splendored. You are beauty Elaine.

Bravissima.

[melantha1000]

oh this is lovely!!

[SoldatSolutrea]

This is such a cool song, it's ideal for the plucked keyboard. Of course it has to be of Anglo-Saxon origin.

[ravenswylde]

What The Doors would've sounded like in the 1500's...

[gebaumere]

[baizhongtang]

Comparone is a virtuose!!! I can't imagine the effort required to reach this level of aptitude!

[bodinian]

[bodinian]

Zelda will find out about this one day

[fuckmail2]

[Achorafa]

Simply perfect. Beatifuly flawless

[Frewtsalad]

I love this piece and the way you play it. Is there an mp3 version available? I looked at the two sites mentioned on your video's but could not find it.

[muktismom]

You play this amazingly interestingly. Great piece. I have a harp arrangement that follows it almost. Thanks so much for posting!

[ducksocks]

ha ha it sounds like video game music

[SophiethebiXD]

This woman is great

[danielsterling925]

I love this piece. Where can I buy/obtain the clavier score to this?

[Jpierrot10]

Bravo très bien joué et très belle musique !!

[wilbur1960]

There is nothing new under sun ...proven again! Thanks for this!

[withindarkness]

A few people were asking about the title:

“Dompe”: a 16th century english term to denote a mournful or plaintive melody or song; also a tune in general; sometimes

apparently used for a kind of dance (Oxford English Dictionary)

[FengLong]

@withindarkness i bet if we heard it being played back at the time, it would be a bit slower than this performance.

this was played almost in the style of some gypsy song hehe~

this performance was interesting to hear, but it doesnt have that english sound to it in my opinion

[douskara]

Very beautiful!!!!!!!

[isomolle]

Excellent music, excellent musician 5/5

[bouzignac]

Une de mes pièces pour clavecin favorites depuis 50 ans...

Le Beau Son Anglais.

Merci

[EdouChar16]

[roachmeister24]

@EdouChar16 Its amazing....

Why would you say that you muppet even if there was!!??

[Tocinator]

Very beautiful =)

[YeOldeTune]

The lady Carey was Mary Boleyn , Anne's sister.

[bajubner]

[witchcraftlord]

[semicroma]

@bajubner google My Lady Carey's Dompe filetype:pdf and you will find it

[Nexarianz]

Magnificent - Such heart!

[clinpsydoc]

Awesome English virginal!

[trimalkkion]

it's highly probalby a Flemish harpsichord after the Ruckers school ;-D

(and the piece is probably Irish ;-P)

[andreybeci]

lol I wrote the piece but you play it better than in wrote it

[MrGabinio]

señora la amo;hermosa su interpretacion .

[pianiplunker]

I've seen this piece credited to Hugh Ashton in anthologies but it's so different from the Hornepipe.

[FoliesEspagne]

Only now I recognize this is the woman of one of my favorite and cheap cds. The Trio Sonatas (J.S. Bach, originally for organ) in an arrangement for guitar and harpsichord.

The most fantastic sounds come out of that harpsichord. And yes this a great swinging tune too!

[carrietide]

I LOVE THIS

[MikeJS57]

This woman is on a par with Robert Aldwinckle, and he's brilliant. I love women with large hands, except when they ask me for some cash.

[starbreez3]

Lol silly.

[xp145]

Somebody once told me that the old English word dompe meant depression. Does anyone know if that is true?

[MikeJS57]

I can't be sure but I knew a lemming once who killed himself after he got domped by his girlfriend.

[mataplaa]

Dump, Dumpe or Dompe is actually a Elizabethan dance that originated in the lower classes. There are a few renaissance composers that used this form, including John Johnsone. This is a dance accompanied by the lute.

[bjankuloski]

That's definitely the right tempo - on harpsichord, lute, guitar, they all should be played at the same tempo

[EngorgedxSpleen]

fantastic! i fell in love with this piece when they played it in Elizabeth R.

[Noshirm]

It sounds amazingly modern at moments, Elaine! Very enjoyable!

[MartyredxMaiden]

I'm flabbergasted!

[ecomparone]

To Climacofobia

Thank you!

The "right' tempo is what works! If it sounds contemporary, that's the highest praise for my performance. What good is music if it doesn't have life in the moment?

[climacofobia]

Is that the right tempo? Wow, it's so contemporary! It sounds like a modern electro track. I like it so much!

[DeMars3]

Wow, I've never heard anything quite like that before!

[heytc99]

wow

[robotech3]

rafael puyana'nın yanında bu kadının esamesi bile okunamaz. rezil etti güzelim parçayı.

[Ski56ppy]

Elaine, beautiful playing with a very swinging Lady Carey...

I likes this!

All the best

[AtheistPriest]

Wonderful piece.

[AnimeLover51013]

[astraeos]

This is one of my favorite pieces of the period! Thanks so much for posting this.

[madisonthing]

Stunning, piece. Extremely English in tone and sound.

But absolutely lovely, thank you dearly Elaine!

[Gealach74]

Excellent!!!

bravo

Vicente

[Gothick49]

Princess Elizabeth (as portrayed by the fabulous Glenda Jackson) was seen playing this piece in the BBC serial Elizabeth R, episode 1.

Brilliant performance, and I love the dramatic contrast afforded by the use of the lute stop.

[sooth15]

I've heard this piece before, but never knew it's origins. Very interesting, and beautifully played!

[josephstef]

I loved your explanation at the beginning. Your playing is as always non plus ultra! I love this piece and have students play it often. Thank you so much for playing it.

[cav0129]

[Gusk20]

So nice, thanks for your explication at beginning Elaine. Greetings!!!

[sandyhackney]

Thrilling! Many thanks.
