It's funny how some assume that such rythms HAD to be imported from the Ottoman Empire or North Africa, rather than being invented by the poor, stupid Europeans.

Can we say what people did in day to day life 400 + or - years ago? We live in totally different environments. If I had half a brain and a drum I would join in with this. I think people had a sense of taste. We just want to paint a picture in our mind of history as stale, because intellectualism and historians are stale MFrs

this Rai North African bit is interesting but unnecessary. Kapsberger has enough
ornaments and rhythm to make him immortal.
-
@danensago Probablly, the percussion really were in the music, not in the manuscript, but in the played music !!!!!
-
Check out the Spanish and Portuguese composers transitioning between the Renaissance and Baroque. You'll find some interesting surprises. :)
-
It would not be impossible to Bellydance to this music.
-
it is been syncopated by a modern transposer with a Jazz background. Thats my guess.
-
@xglewiss You must consider the options

North Africa provides the rhythm.. and still does..
-
I suppose a lot of early music has a strong rythmical affinity with North Africa and other far away lands - lots of travelling ! So perhaps this is 'authentic' in lots of ways. Stunning in any case !

One thing puzzles me: is this how the music originally sounded, or has it been 'jazzed up' by a modern musician? It sounds so modern! I'm guessing because it is syncopated (?) presumably because of some sort of Moorish/African influence, which sounds 'modern' to our ears? But would the original manuscripts really have specified this type of percussion?

The percussion not is in the original manuscript, but the meliodia in lute yes
