Something a little bit different from me this time.
No synths, no MIDI, just a tin whistle, a low whistle, a mandolin and
other assorted instruments and gadgets I have lying around at home.
Recorded on Linux, of course, using Ardour 6, a Scarlett 6i6 interface
and a Rode NT-1A microphone.

This is my submission for for the Mittelalternativ.de [1] October 2020
challenge. The task was to create an interpretation and/or adaption of a
melody provided by the challenge's host Nils Hilbricht in a "medieval"
style (whatever that means to you).
My piece is rather short, so give it a listen and maybe you'll
Share & Enjoy!

Very nice tune. I would have loved a counter melody in the bass
flute,but that might not have been in style. Lovely instrumentation,
recording and mixing. I also enjoyed the way you varied the theme.
Best wishes,
Jeanette

Thanks for your kind words.

Yes, that crossed my mind, but I could only find limited time to
practice and record the track, so I had to keep it simple.
It was a refreshing experience to make do with the "real" instruments I
have at home without relying on samples (though I did end up using some
cymbal samples). I should explore more the multitude of sounds the human
vocal tract and body can produce (ignoring the more unsavoury ones) and
how they can be used in musical settings.

Yes, very nice sounds! Always good to remind ourselves that no matter
how much effort has gone into digitizing/sampling/synthesizing
instrument sounds... hard to beat real instruments.
Almost felt like I was somewhere back in Henry VIII's time, that perhaps
he was even playing one of the instruments.
Thanks for sharing it!

This has a very 'folky' sound. Really nice playing.

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
