Let’s Dance! On this Sunday’s Vox Nostra, Telemann and Christopher Tye are ‘tyed’ for birthdays, so we’ll head to the dance floor and celebrate Thoinot Arbeau and the many other known and anonymous dance masters who left us great tunes from ages past. Mixing with the subtle sounds of ancient medieval music from the times of St. Patrick and the other Irish saints, will be the galliards, gigues, gavottes and other dances that made nimble feet move gracefully centuries ago. Plus, looking forward to Early Music Day, celebrated every year on 21st March as JS Bach’s birthday (on the Old Style calendar, naturally!) and spring equinox. Vlad will have plenty of music by Papa Bach and family ready to go on this special Sunday morning. Ina theannta sin: I lár Sheachtain na Gaeilge, beidh maidin cheoil ársa ann ag ceiliúradh Pádraig, naomh na hÉireann – chomh maith le ceol agus rince ó na céadta bliain ó shin!
