Duke Chapel · October 24, 2009 This concert was a shared performance between the Duke Chorale, the Duke Symphony Orchestra, and the Duke University Wind Symphony. The Duke Wind Symphony performed four dances from Susato's "The Danserye." In this performance we used them as frame pieces. We started the concert with “La Morisque” from "The Danserye" followed by a transcription for wind band of Magnum Mysterium by Morten Lauridsen. Two more Susato Dances followed: “Ronde & Salterelle” & “Ronde & Aliud." We continued with "Bloom" by Steven Bryant, who attended the concert that night. We concluded with a final "Danserye" movement: “Pavane: La Battaille.”
