Elven Recorder Trio
« on: June 04, 2011, 05:20:22 am »
*Three musicians, one dressed all in red and wearing an Ilsare cloak, take the stage in the Bulls-Eye.  As the other two assemble their instruments, the red-garbed elf speaks*

This little ditty we're playing today
Is a folktune of elven roots
So I've penned variations that we're going to play
On a trio of elven reed flutes.

Before the performance, I'll sing for you all;
This same elven folktune, learned when I was small...

*she pauses, then sings, unaccompanied, in a clear soprano*

Hello there my lord and my lady fair - my parents are away
They're fighting Bloodstone, 'cross the sea - but they'll come back someday.

*Her mouth quirks in somewhat bitter humour, and then she lifts the recorder to her lips and repeats the tune.  The musician to her right, playing a larger instrument, picks up a bass line, followed by counterpoint from the musician to her right, all three instruments blending together.*

To the scattered applause, the three bow, and depart.

// Therise's Perform skill is much higher than mine, and I only spent an hour writing and recording this.  Don't judge her! ;)
