Echo fantasy
This tune brings to mind Van Eyck’s “Fantasie en Echo”, though it’s not quite as rhythmically sophisticated.
The sheet music is on IMSLP.
I’m thinking about making big Kickstarter project from these arrangements. Would you be interested in a collection of 200 of these pieces?
Dutch tune with video
I think the best translation of “Speelman” is “organ grinder”, so, here is “De Speelman met een Oogh”: the organ grinder with one eye.
This is part of the collection http://imslp.org/wiki/Oude_en_Nieuwe_Hollantse_Boerenlieties_en_Contredansen_(Anonymous)
Say, if I were to publish this, would you buy it?
Snowflakes, for 6 recorders
This piece will really stretch your ensemble playing. Scored for 6 recorders, it is almost monophonic, spinning long lines across the multiple voices.

The recording is by Tetsuya Muto.
