I also liked > the Jester and the Juggler (?) and Keep Well Your Array(?). Not surprisingly, the ones that I have done midi or modern editions for on my webpages are the easier ones. Rounds: easy: Three Blind Mice, Hey Ho, White Hen, Lady, Joan Glouer, I am a-thirst, Ah Poor Bird. harder: Banbury Ale (last note hard to get right), Go ye not to Brainford (wide range, but hey, it's a drinking round). hard: Hey Ho, to the Green Wood; New Oysters New. Songs: Of all the Birds, Martin said to his man, Souldiers Three. > (And there are too many that start "Down down derry > down down" or some variation thereof). A perfectly fine way to start! Those Italians are too stuck on "fa la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la". -- Gregory Blount ------------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, send email to majordomo@pbm.com containing the words "unsubscribe minstrel".
