See and try 16thC style instruments. Some we have to demonstrate including: a drum, various renaissance recorders, a crumhorn, a psaltery, small bells and a harp.

For others instrument we show pictures.

Listen to music as played in Queen Elizabeth I's coronation. Play simple 16thC tunes on the descant recorder with drum/tambour accompanyment (mainly for children who can play a few notes, say EFGABC'D', but some could play percussion or the workshop could be geared to dance for the practical part).
