    Three Sixteenth-Century Dances By Stephen ChinThree Sixteenth Century Dances By Stephen Chin

    The composition is an excellent introduction to Early Music due to its predominantly homophonic writing style. The second piece in the composition, written by Arbeau, gained popularity much later when Peter Warlock used it in the well-known "Capriol Suite". For an enhanced and authentic experience, bass drum or tambour parts can be improvised and added to the composition.
