Strange and Solemn music Strange and Solemn music
For a magic banquet with dancing shapes. The musical "highpoint" for me, I believe. (Original)
Preshow music Preshow music
This music, to be of somewhat an "ethereal" nature is a reworking of John Dowland's _Sir John Souch's Galliard
End of Act I End of Act I
The Pulse Ensemble Theatre production of _The Tempest_ ends with suspenseful music. I used John Dowland's _Lachrimae Pavan_.
Beginning Act II Beginning Act II
Here our two "love protagonists" are hitting it off and hauling logs around. The music is upbeat and is Thomas Morley's _Goe from my window_.
Ariel suspense music Ariel suspense music
Ariel, the captive sprite, is about to be made free, so gets a "suspense music..." The tune is, again, John Dowland's _Lachrimae Pavan_.
Chimes of revelation Chimes of revelation
Our "love interests" Ferdinand and Miranda are found behind a curtain where they have been playing chess. At least that's what we *think* they have been doing...
Where the bee sucks Where the bee sucks
Everybody who writes a _Tempest_ must write a "Where the Bee Sucks..." This is mine.
A solemn air A solemn air
A solemn air is called for by Prospero, who is coming into his own by the end of the play. Music is John Dowland's _Melancholy Galliard_.
Magic drone with hunters Magic drone with hunters
Prospero unleashes wild dogs agains his potential enemies. "Devilish" music (original).
Ariel glittering entrance Ariel glittering entrance
Ariel enters with glittering clothing which is hung on a line to "distract" the villains. Music is, again, William Byrd's _Jhon come kisse me now_.
