More AYLI music
/I managed to scrape out a couple more songs for As You Like It last week: “Blow, blow, thou winter wind,” from Act II.7, and “It was a lover and his lass” from Act V.3.
“Blow, blow” I like. It’s melancholy, quiet. It’s sung a capella, with Lord Amiens starting out, then other joining in, with drum circle drums.
I’m not as happy with “It was a lover and his lass.” It’s okay, but if the mise-en-scène is more or less a burn with its background EDM music, this music doesn’t really fit it with that. I may take a third stab at it. The problem is, how does an acoustic guitar player replicate that EDM energy?
Note: we’re only doing three of the four original verses, but all three are played here. Feel free to not listen to the whole thing.
