My Ladie Laudian's Lilt (from the Straloch Lute Manuscript, 1627)
Setting by Allan Alexander & Jessica Walsh
This is a rather folky arrangement of a well-known Scottish renaissance lute piece, which appears in two of the most important Scottish renaissance music sources, the Straloch Manuscript and the Skene Manuscript. My arrangement is based on chords and a variation taken from "Celtic Music for Mandolin" by Allan Alexander & Jessica Walsh. They intended the variation to be played after the tune, to make it longer, but I've used it as a second voice. The same variation, but without the chord changes, also appears in Allan Alexander's "Renaissance Music for Mandolin".
Placed as a trio of two nylgut-strung bowlback mandolins (very similar to the mandore or soprano lute, which was the instrument for which the Skene manuscript was written) and tenor guitar.
"Baroq-ulele" nylgut-strung bowlback mandolin (x2)
Ozark tenor guitar
