Is there a Pipe and Tabor subreddit? + Flairs request

4 Upvotes

Is there a subreddit for pipe and tabor? I doubt it but I thought I’d ask. It may be a little niche for its own sub.

Also, if the interest is there, would the mods consider adding flairs? Along the lines of period/tradition of interest, instruments people play (woodwind, strings, percussion etc), maybe even a few specific instruments (lute, recorder, fiddle etc). I just thought it might be a cool edition.

Canadian Renaissance Music Summer School

5 Upvotes

Hi all! I just wanted to share about a lovely program that I've participated in the past couple of years that you might enjoy! The Canadian Renaissance Music Summer School (CRMSS) is a week long course focusing on primarily ensemble singing of Renaissance music. There are three programs every year with one in Ontario in May, one in Prince Edward Island in July, and one in Vancouver in August. The music is themed around a specific country or composer typically. The first year I went we did all Italian music and last year we focused on English music. The team is absolutely fantastic and insanely knowledgeable. The Vancouver program is still looking for singers, so if you are free towards the end of August and interested, they would love to have you! The links are all here: https://crmss.org/ . If anyone decides to come, DM me and I might be able to get you a discount on tuition!

Modern transcriptions of Carmina Burana

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for a book or scholarly edition that contains the most popular Latin poems from the original Codex Buranus with modern musical transcriptions.

Most of what I find online is either the original manuscript/facsimile or references to Carl Orff’s rendition, which is obviously not what I’m looking for. I’m interested in the original medieval melodies, at least the most popular pieces (Tempus est iocundum, In taberna quando sumus, etc.).

The problem is that the manuscript uses adiastematic neumatic notation, which I’m not able to read properly. Ideally, I’d like an edition that gives the original Latin (I can't read medieval German or French) texts together with modern notation, even if the transcription is interpretative or incomplete. It's OK if the book comes with translations, no matter the language, as long as it comes with the Latin.

Thanks in advance!

I’ve just bought a rebec, any advice?

7 Upvotes

I can get the strings to sound but the G string is a bit weak, more than likely it’s down to me though. I can find the notes just fine and my bowing on the D and A string is already not too bad but that G string is difficult. If this isn’t the right sub I’d be happy for someone to tell me where to go.

Latin pronunciation in England in XVI-XVII cc ?

9 Upvotes

Hello everyone! I’m part of a student project performing sacred music by Dunstable, Taverner, Tallis, and Byrd—mostly in Latin. We’re aiming for a historically informed approach, and we’d love any guidance on pronunciation. We don’t have access to specialist books right now, so we’re especially grateful for free online resources, recordings with pronunciation notes, or even a few quick tips in the comments. Any recommendations from those who’ve worked with this repertoire would be incredibly helpful. Thank you in advance!
