This is arranged with trumpet playing up to F in a brass quintet formation. It can be performed without tuba, bass line substituted by trombone and euphonium. Please arrange the ideal instrumentation for your group and enjoy the flavor of Renaissance masterpieces. Ideal is a relaxed performance focusing on the characteristics of each dance.
