Musical Delights at the Court of Elizabeth I of England; or, an anthology of polyphonic music in two, three, and four parts performed by a consort of dulcians, lute, harpsichord, and the human voice. Elizabeth I, crowned in 1558, extended her long reign until 1603 and supported England during a fortunate and important period in its history—politically, religiously, commercially, and culturally. Like her father, Henry VIII, she loved music, playing the lute and lyre herself and surrounding herself with up to 70 musicians at court. Music was often associated with the theatrical performances of geniuses such as Shakespeare and Marlow. The dulciana (curtal) was introduced to England in the first three decades of the 16th century, likely by the Venetians Bassano, inventors of an instrument: the bassone corto (curtal), as can already be seen in two inventories from 1542 and 1547 dating back to the court of Henry VIII: "...13 short instruments caulked Dulceuses..." In the 16th century, many documents testify to the use of this instrument in England, which was integrated into wind instrumental groups (Waits), similar to other similar ensembles on the European continent, and intended for use at court and in public ceremonies. The refined sound of the dulciana in its various sizes used here—bass, but also soprano, contralto, and tenor—ideally complements both the voice and instruments essential to harmony and counterpoint, such as the lute and harpsichord. Most English composers of the time wrote vocal and instrumental music for both sacred and secular use. In so-called consort music, it was common practice to perform polyphonic pieces for four or more voices with a homogeneous ensemble of instruments. This is a rare sound document that illustrates their timbre on dulcians. Also of interest is the possibility of performing some fantasias for two basses, originally intended for the viola d'gamba, on the dulcian, which offers a sound that highlights the singable and melancholic component but also the rhythmic and witty one typical of the flexibility of this wind instrument, a forerunner of the modern bassoon.
The timbral refinement of the different musical ensembles present on this disc is enhanced by the extraordinary quality of the recording, carried out in the large Velut Luna studios in Preganziol using high-resolution digital technology.

Definitely A Must Read!
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
Dr. Michele Borba’s latest book, Thrivers, is a must-read for every parent, grandparent, educator, or just anyone working with children. Dr. Borba speaks from the heart with years of research to back up every word. Wisdom oozes from every page of Thrivers. One of her quotes that really resonated with me was, “Character is what builds inner strength, genuineness, and wholeness and helps turn kids who strive for the next gold ring into young adults who thrive in a fast-paced, ever-changing world. When kids are missing character strengths like optimism, curiosity, empathy, and perseverance their development is incomplete.” Thrivers is filled with “Seven Teachable Skills That Set Happy, Healthy, High-Performing Kids Apart”. Thrivers shows us exactly how to instill these incredibly important missing character pieces in our children/students so they won’t be incomplete. This is crucial so they will be prepared for whatever they are faced with in the future. I want my students to be Thrivers! Dr. Borba’s book is just what we need! What an inspirational read!

Spreading wisdom
Format: Paperback
Of course my kids delivered a disappointed ‘Thanks’ when opening the gift. I listened on audio and knew I couldn’t remember to pass on the interesting facts and ideas that I learned, so I bought the books as gifts. Some ideas are old and some are new. Overall a great read.

Good enough, good points
Format: Hardcover
Definitely a book that makes a lot of good points. It's very repetitive though. And lots of it is common sense. If you want to learn why your children are overwhelmed, it definitely explains why
