A long descending melody, like a slalom in the snow. Beautiful Tourdion, the tenth of Attaingnant's 1547 danceries book. Tourdion 10 - Attaingnant
Branle simple is a binary pattern of dance, it means "to move". The four voices fit well to the fiddle. Main chord G, ending in C, no 7th harmony, full triads with full thirds. Branle Simple 11 - Attaingnant
A tune that could recall us an Appalachian one, as "West Fork Girls" for example. You may play it in A instead of G. Branle Simple 12 - Attaingnant
