La Morisque (from the Danserye) - T. Susato - RENAISSANCE BUCKET DRUMMING!
Oh we are throwing it DOWN, now! Ya'll taking it back 500 years to some hot Renaissance music from the 16th century, heyo!
Alright, let's try this one :) Throwing it all the way to Susato's period, we present, from the Danserye "La Morisque" for BUCKET DRUMMING!
Even to pre-date your Baroque and Classical period, this gotta be a teaching opportunity!
There are two all-color coded slides along with the form identifiers listed next to each phrase. Discuss form with the students and teach them (by rote) the rhythms on the powerpoint with the corresponding repeats (some which are repeated in groups of 2 times). Then, apply it to drums!
All regular notation is to be played on the buckets (or drums, or ground, however you wish), and the X notation (with a down stem) are played as stick clicks above their head (or you could apply it to a tambourine or other auxiliary instrument)
- NOTE: As this is not in cut time as normally played, you'll be taking it in common time to make it a bit more achievable
Here's the track so you can play along... (or you can find your favorite version on YouTube as well)
