Istanpitta wraps up their 2007 season

Medieval music ensemble Istanpitta plays their last set at the 2007 Texas Renaissance Festival, with some assistance from Wyndnwyre, who hope to preserve them for posterity.

This iteration of Istanpitta are; Al Cofrin krumhorn, medieval pipes; E. J. Jones, medieval pipes; Heather Gilmer, vielle, Abby Green, tamborine, vocals.

Thanks for posting. I missed it even though I talked to Bill and Mark moments before, they didn't tell me to stick around and watch.
