[on authentic instruments]
Excellent! Always one of my favorite tunes: I previously only knew it as the hymn tune Prince Rupert "Hark! the Voice Eternal, Robed in Majesty" as arranged by Gustav Holst 1925. It was described in The Hymnal 1940 (Episcopal) as 'English March, 1648' and was tune #316.
It's no longer in the 1982 Hymnal so most Episcopalians today won't know it. Perhaps it's still in the various English hymnals?.
This particular instrumental setting is out of this world! Thanks for posting..
