Dear Arthur, The Jew's Dance is in Dd.3.18, etc., i.e. the Cambridge Consort manuscripts. It's really a Bergamasca, which is quite different from Newsidler's piece, but there is no reason why they should be the same. No doubt Jews were associated with many pieces of music.
If I remember right, only the recorder and lute parts survive. The bandora, cittern, and bass viol parts are easy enough to reconstruct or busk. Warwick Edwards has created a fine part for the (presumably lost) violin part, which acts as a foil to the flute and lute. Best wishes, Stewart McCoy. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Arthur Ness" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Lute Net" <lute@cs.dartmouth.edu> Sent: Saturday, June 04, 2005 9:53 PM Subject: Re: Judentanz Neusidler etc. > It is in Morlaye's First book of consort lessone, and is by Nicolson. > > ajn > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Alain Veylit" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "G.R.
