Trotto — BM MS Add 29987 On the Dufay Collective recording, A Dance in the Garden of Mirth, their track 8 has it teamed up with a Saltarello from the same mansucript source, as mentioned above. It appears to be played on solo vielle by Giles Lewin, with additional drone strings; it seems to be an 'extended mix', the whole thing repeated several times. The approach is obviously strongly rhythmic dance music and the following Saltarello deploys the same instrumental forces with the addition of big bass drum accompaniment. I love this melody. I inserted as follows; Illa saltat ( She dances) Ille saltat (He dances) Ego salto (I dance) This is for the memory of her.
