about

BONUS TRACK - AVAILABLE AS DOWNLOAD ONLY. The Dolmetsch Music Dictionary defines the “dump” or “dompe” as “a sixteenth- and seventeenth-century slow, melancholy old English dance form usually in 4/4 time, of which there are about something over twenty examples, the title’s meaning possibly that mentioned in Ralph Roister Doister, the comedy written by Nicholas Udall (1504-1556), namely a melancholy induced by love.” This particular piece has been dated to around 1535 and was originally written for lute; I’ve arranged it for DADGAD-tuned guitar.
