Скачать или смотреть London Spy, or Audenard Battle (English country dance), on mandolins

This English country dance was first published by I. Walsh and P. Randall in The New Country Dancing Master, 2nd Book (London, 1710)., the alternative title coming from a famous battle in 1708. It was also included in later editions of Playford's Dancing Master, from 1710 onwards.

My recording is based on a setting by Evelyn Tiffany-Castiglioni from the third volume of "Evelyn's Big Book Of Mandolin Trios". I'm playing it twice through, with Evelyn's harmony parts coming in on the repeat. Evelyn has transposed the tune two steps up from G minor to A minor and has added two bars to the B part to make it a regular 8-bar jig -- the original only has six bars in the B part.
