Create the feel of a Renaissance fair with this setting of "Ayeres or Phantasticke Spirites" by Toman Weelkes (c.1575-1623). Recorder (or C instrument) and tambourine add a lively touch to the 3/4 meter as do the optional 3 octaves of handchimes. The optional instrument scores are included in the handbell folio. Measures total 56.
