Seven traditional songs, arranged by Dimitri Tchesnokov for unison choir with accompaniment – either piano, a brass quintet or a brass band. All the scores are available.
This work is based on the work of Julien Tiersot, who transcribed French melodies and songs from the 13th to the 17th century and created harmonisations for them. The melodies and lyrics are faithful to Julien Tiersot’s transcription. Certain elements of the harmonisation have been incorporated into this work.
