Camerata Zürich, Igor Karsko (music director & concertmaster)
recorded in Zurich, September 2023
In 1926, the English composer and music critic Peter Warlock (pseudonym for Philip Arnold Heseltine), drew on Renaissance music in his "Capriol Suite": six dances from the orchésographie by the French priest and choreographer Thoinot Arbeau, written in 1588. This compendium is one of the most important sources for old dance styles. Warlock has used it to create a series of pieces ranging from the well-known pavane to the old sword dance "Mattachins" and has arranged the dances in an original way. The varied suite therefore quickly became popular.
