      Dances, songs & psalms by anonymous composers, from Susanne van Soldt's copybook (1599) For this new release, Alpha asked Les Witches to work on Susanne van Soldt's famous manuscript from the late 16th century, comprising dances, songs, and psalms adapted to the virginal or the harpsichord. The majority of pieces in the manuscript are reductions for the keyboard. Based on these reductions, Les Witches had to imagine the "original" versions for instrumental ensembles, then recreate the tonal colors that we see in Brueghel's country fairs, weddings, and village feasts. Let's get up and dance!
