about

The first tune in this collection that is from Terpsichore, a collection of dance tunes, published by Michael Pretorius in 1612. Some of the tunes, like this one, were by Pretorius, while others were by other composers of the day or listed as anonymous. There were no copyright laws, so publishing somebody else’s work was not uncommon. There are 312 tunes in the compilation, so it’s an endless source of fascination and great tunes to explore. This one is probably the greatest hit from the collection.
