Dance of the Renaissance

A celebration of Renaissance dance music performed on Classical and Steel String Guitars, Harpsichord, Recorders, Oboe, Violin and Tambourine.
Visions of Maypoles, Morris Dancers, and country faires flow naturally from this recording, a favorite among listeners since 1988.
Lively and upbeat.
