They are suitable for recorders, modern strings, woodwinds or brass, or where available, reproductions of 16th century instruments, such as crumhorns, viols or shawms to name but a few.Also appearing in the publication Chording to the Consort, this individual piece is presented in full score and with separate parts for each of the lines. Wold Meridian editions of these pieces have been created to make performing them as accessible as possible. Chords have been provided so that the piece can be performed with just the melody line and a simple accompaniment. Each piece can be heard in a video on YouTube with illustrations and historical background information. Even more helpful for players who are less experienced in reading harmony lines, there is a YouTube video link featuring each part, where it is heard initially on its own with the chords, on repeats with the melody line added and finally together with all the parts in the whole ensemble. If you have not had the pleasure of playing in consort with other people, you could not do better than start with these Wold Meridian editions.You can hear the piece in a linked YouTube video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oq5VMhNHhJEAs a help for players who are not so familiar with playing harmony and inner linesLine 2 is featured at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0kDO3BCPd_ILine 3 is featured at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OAVg0dhvmi4Line 4 is featured at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H0DsSVonKYs
