Good gentles of the list:
I apologize for the tardiness of this response. I tried to send the following comment on either the 12th or 13th, but it did not post.
original comment:
Here in Meridies, some Renaissance dances that have been set to
modern tunes are:
Hole in the Wall Personal Jesus
Posties Jig Sex on Wheels (already mentioned)
Trenchmore Istanbul, not Constantinople
Other adaptations I have heard in this Kingdom are one dance that was
performed to Wheel in the Sky and another to a tune by the Medieval
Bæbes, but can't remember their names. A third has been set to The
Safety Dance, probably Rufty Tufty, as has been said.
I have heard The Mouseketeer's Theme used for Heralds in Love while
at Pennsic.
Hlaford (Lord) Iohann se pipere
Sable, a gyron argent
Ars Longa Vita Brevis (art endures, life ends)
