      Yes, death and violence, but all in the best possible taste!

      To link groups of rhymes du Prez used a 5 beats to the bar ditty with various combinations of instruments, including crumhorns. I wonder if he was inspired by Pictures at an Exhibition? Do have a listen. All are sung and narrated very clearly.

                  Yes, very quiet on the Forum generally - only 5 threads showed up when I clicked 'What's New?' just now

                  Your D for du was an absolute stinker, may I say...!

                  Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
                  Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
                  Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

                    Coming from Caliban, I'd take that as a compliment, Flay

                    Just don't let it go to your head, mind

                      Steady now, Caliban - there's quite enough ear-boxing going on elsewhere from our horn-playing colleague without you throwing in your embouchure

                            I've got a quick one

                            A joke, three dances and almost last, a march. What the F...? Sorry, what's the F?

                              Naughty!

                              This suggests Mozart: Three German Dances K. 605, A Musical Joke K. 522 and 14 marches. But there's no F in 'em

                                Indeed, no Mozart
