Below is in the key we use.
Here is a pdf of the way we play it:
By popular request, here is the sheet music for the dance of the same name, which I obtained from the author.
Thanks to Kevin Hughes for supplying this "rehearsal" recording from long ago.
The Saturday show, recorded near the front of the house on my tunesucker, handheld by Alanna (thanks!). Edit: replaced the original recording with an equalized and edited version from Mikkel.
Beltain on this recording are S Morgan McDow, Sue Carney, Calveleigh Rasmussen, Mikkel McDow & Dave Cowan. The Brunos at this performance were Ron Collins, Jason Adajian, Kevin Hughes, Alex Bernstein, Jay Doane and Martin Taber.Fuck, yeah!
Here's a surprisingly audible recording I made last Suday of the Briana Benefit show at the Noe Valley Ministry. Most of the recently revived dances were performed, as well a new new tune for the first music set (The Goat Walk), and some old favorites.
The audio is from Bloody Knuckles. Thanks to Bill Richardson for supplying the nice looking PDF(this is the 2nd pdf and differs from the current way of playing. The first pdf and the abc are closer tom our current way). As I recall, the No Man's Jig was played when the final sword lock was circled around a puritan's neck, as we all chanted "chop, chop, chop".
A unique, 5-person hanky dance, recently resurrected by P&B. The audio is from Caper Diem; annotation by Ricker.
Malaika's notation:
Yet another great dance back from the dead. The tune was written by the Waites' very own Sue Carney, who I recently had the enormous pleasure of dancing to and playing with at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival in Ashland.
The audio is from the first Bruno CD, Caper Diem; the annotation is Ricker's.
