As most of you probably know by now, my apprentice sister, Jehanne Bening is to
be eleveated to the Order of the Laurel at King's Companie of Archers here in
Forgotten Sea on 9/11. Our household is putting together a vigil/ceremony
worthy of her, her new status, and of her personna as a 15th century Burgundian.

When discussing plans, she mentioned a hidden boom box playing appropriate cd's
during the day to add ambiance to the vigil area. I cannot let this happen. So,
I appeal to you, good musical gentles of Calontir, to please help me keep this
from happpening. If you, singly or in groups could find the time to come to
this event and provide your services for her special day, our entire household
would be forever in your debt. I'm not asking for a specified time of the day,
specified music, or even a specfic length of time. If you can come by and play
or sing one song only, or many, you will not be turned away. It would mean so
much to her, and to all of our household. We are working very hard to make this
a very special day, that she will never forget.

Did I mention that there is a sumptuous menu for the vigil food which of course,
is on offer to all? Fare such as you cannot imagine, and I'm sure there will be
plenty of it!

YIS,
Constance

Greetings all, from one new to the list--

I am Susanna de l'Essart, from the Canton of Axed Root (Ames, Iowa).  I used to
be a singer, back in the day, and I very  much enjoyed listening to you play at
Raid or Trade.  Music was my gateway drug to the SCA.

So... I'm the one who jumped in during rehearsal on that Saturday to ask you to
come to fall RUSH in the Canton on October 23rd.  We are recruiting teachers and
orchestra.  :-)  There will be a Ball in the early evening and we hope that some
dance classes will be part of the schedule during the day.  (There will be a
buffet supper instead of a formal feast, so the dancing may commence as soon as
court is over.  We'll make sure the players are well-fed, too!)

The event flyer will be posted on the kingdom website very soon, and
announcements are forthcoming on several listservs.  Feel free to discuss here
or to contact me off-list for more info.

And if anyone feels inclined to teach a class on madrigals--I can guarantee you
at least one rapt attendee.
Susanna

Let me double check my travel plans with my lady but I should be able to do a
class on early period music theory that focuses on madrigals (especially middle
madrigals as that is were my priority is).  I'll get back to you as soon as I
can.

This link came via the Digital Medievalist list; has anyone here used it?  (You
need a user name and id to actually view the manuscripts but it sounds like a

Thank you Zino!

Anyone else??  We're still hoping to have dance classes during the day so that
everyone can participate in the ball... but so far no one has contacted the
Event Steward to indicate what classes they'd like to teach.  We *could* hold a
ball with recorded music... but we'd much prefer live music.  ;-)  And let's not
forget that everything goes more smoothly with a dance leader!

Check your schedules, talk amongst yourselves, and let us know how you'd like to
participate.

Thank you,
Susanna

Checked and I will be there so if want to schedule it the name is "Madrigal
Theory" a class on the music theory applicable to 16th century Italian
madrigals.  (Basic music theory can be ran through quickly if needed). My full
name is Lorenzino Bartolome dei Albizzi.

I am fond of Gelosia, Scotch Cap, and Petit Riens.

As for what's common (and not actually popular, mind), Sellinger's Round,
Korobushka, and probably any number of fairly easy ECDs.

Subject: [SCA-Dance] Known World Dance Symposium web site is now live!

After jumping through various hoops, Mynydd Seren (Bloomington, Indiana) is now
officially hosting the Known World Dance Symposium July 1-3, 2011. The KWDS web
site is now up and running athttp://www.kwdsviii.org

We are looking forward to three days of classes and balls, so now is your chance
to speak up.  What classes would you like to take?  What classes would you like
to teach? Are you interested in playing music? Would you like to present a
paper?  We are hoping to expand the music class track, since there aren't a lot
of opportunities for early music people to share their knowledge at most SCA
events.  We are also hoping to expand the Middle Eastern dance track, since
Bloomington is blessed with an active Middle Eastern music and dance community.
We are interested in all sort of classes from beginner level to esoteric stuff.

We've been talking about this event for a year, and now we finally can go into
high gear.  We are accepting online reservations through ACCEPS, so your can
sign up at the pre-reg rate, starting now.

Greetings unto the dancers of Calontir, from Lord Nicolas L'Anguille, of the
Shire of Grimfells.

Our fair Shire has recently begun dance classes, and at the moment I am leading
them.  I have a copy of Musica Suterranea and Why Not Dance (Cumberland
Collegium), most of my other music was on cassettes, which, sadly are beyond
use.  I have had difficulty finding common music for other dances like the
korobushka, or at least music such as I remember.  I began dancing in the early
90's in Meridies, and was on hiatus for several years.  If anyone could assist
me in procuring common music to dances in Calontir, it would be greatly
appreciated.  I would like my fellow Grimfells dancers to feel confident upon
hearing a piece at an event, so that they might join in.  Any suggestions or
mp3's would be greatly appreciated. 


Je Reste,

En Service au Reve,

Nicolas

Good Lord Nicolas,

I have The SCA Dance Search Engine at
http://sca.uwaterloo.ca/Music/bookmarked.  It is a powerful depository
of dance instruction, sheet music,
and recordings of dance music.

Having said that, the recordings are by far the most sparsely represented,
and perhaps for good reason.  Many arrangers have generously made their
sheet music freely available, at least for purposes within the Society, but
there are fewer musicians who have been willing to freely distribute the CDs
which cost them money to produce.

Do you have all three volumes of the Musica Subterranea collection?  Those
cover just about every dance I've seen in Calontir.

Is any of this helpful?

--In joy and service,
Christian d'Hiver

Christian,

Thank you so much for your quick reply; I only have Volume 1 of Musica
Subterranea at the moment, but plan to purchase the other two.  I have also
downloaded some of the mp3's from the waterloo website, but some of the
versions
were ones which I am unfamiliar with. 


I hope to bring dance back to Grimfells, and help our newer members feel
confident enough to dance a few rounds when they attend events around the
kingdom.

Nicolas

there are fewer musicians who have been willing to freely distribute the CDs
which cost them money to produce.

Do you have all three volumes of the Musica Subterranea collection? Those
cover just about every dance I've seen in Calontir.

Is any of this helpful?

--In joy and service,
Christian d'Hiver

This just in there will be dancing at the Grand Melee in Three Rivers this
weekend. It will occur Saturday evening
Approx 7 PM or 1 hour after court ends, whichever is later. This will likely
overlap in time and be nearby the dinner grill
area.

So bring something to grill, put it on the fire and dance a bit while it cooks.
Or have yourself a fine dinner and dance it off afterwards.

Musicians wanted. Dances will be chosen randomly from a list of available music!

My apologies to those who get this more than once, I am hoping to spread
this missive as far and wide as I can:



Greetings unto the great Populace of Calontir,



My name is Roberto, and I am the new Lanner Herald.  For those that do not
know what this name means, I will explain.  I am the Kingdom Deputy Herald
for Ceremony.  It is my duty to help any and all who have a ceremony to
plan, make those plans successful.



As such, I am starting a grand project.  I would like to document any and
all ceremonies that have ever happened in this Kingdom.  This is a daunting
task, and I know I will never be 100% successful.  But to this end I have a
plea to anyone and everyone willing to help.



If you have any ceremonies in your possession, that have ever happened in
this Kingdom, please send me a copy?  I will not distribute these as such,
but I will compile them all, and use them as a resource to help guide anyone
wishing input on a ceremony they want to put together.



What kind of ceremony am I looking for you may ask?



Any.



This can include, but is sincerely not limited to:

Knighting, Laureling, Pelicaning, Rose ceremonies, Coronations, crowning of
victors at Crown Tournament, Baronial investitures, taking of associates
(any level, any type), any ceremonies involving the bestowing of court
baronages, or royal perrages, and any vigil ceremonies, or anything else you
can think of.



Why do I wish to do this?  We have some WONDERFUL creative people in this
Kingdom, and we have had some amazing ceremonies.  But we have no central
repository of them.  If we can create said central repository, then if
anyone ever asks when, or how something happened we can answer the question.



Eventually I hope to help people with both SCA central ceremonies, and
period ceremonies, and the differences between them.  But in order to build
this knowledgebase, I must have a base to work from.



Any of these can be delivered to me during any event I am at, or can be sent
electronically, or through modern postal services.  My information will be
in the MEWS, as  all Kingdom officers and deputies are, or I can be
contacted through the email lanner (at) Calontir (dot) info



I look forward to any and all submissions, and thank you all for your help.



Please repost this to any lists you happen to belong to.  If someone can get
this to the peerage lists as well, that would be MOST helpful.



Again, my most humble thanks.



In Service,



Lord Roberto Carlos Dominguez

Lanner Herald
