Tourdion for clarinet and guitar - live performance (mp3)

Details

This lively Tourdion in Dorian mode, influenced by the madrigal of Claude Gervaise, conveys the sensation of merrily swaying with a drink in hand as the surroundings whirl around. The original madrigal's lyrics express: When I relish light wine, my friend, everything spins and spins. Henceforth, I prefer Anjou or Arbois. Let's sing and drink, wage war on this bottle. Let's sing and drink, my friends, let's drink up.
