I remember when I first ran into this piece digging through DD 211, a photo copy back in the 70's. I remember my professor was amused by the piece saying that it does not sound or have the form of any of the Battle Galliards he was familiar with, and he was familiar with a lot.
I am not sure people have not misread the title. I am not sure this piece is not more like a toy than a Battle Galliard. In the manuscript the title is very blurred and smudged it could be read Round Kettle Galliard. I'll go and hide now for dropping that bomb. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Craig Allen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Lute List" <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, June 18, 2007 5:20 PM Subject: [LUTE] Dowland query > Greetings all, > > Does anyone know if Dowland's Round battle Galliard was written to > commemorate anything in particular, and if so what? > > Thank you. > > Regards, > Craig > > > _________________________________________________________________ > Need personalized email and website?
