The English king Henry VIII (1491-1547) is mainly remembered for disposing of his wives on a regular basis and breaking with the Catholic Church when the Pope Clement VII refused to grant him a divorce so he could marry Anne Boleyn. He was however a gifted athlete dancer and composer writing many songs poems and consort pieces (though not Greensleeves as is often believed). Pastime with Good Company is undoubtedly the best-known of these written in the first years of the 16th century while he was still a handsome prince newly married to Catherine of Aragon and the envy of Europe. The lyrics tell of the joys of hunting dancing and singing and would have been sungas part of the court entertainment.

Par HENRY VIII. Thirty-Five Compositions By King Henry VIII is a unique collection, containing King Henry VIII’s complete secular works. These works consist of part-songs and instrumental consorts, and have been transcribed and edited by John Stevens. The collection is a mixture of instrumental pieces and pieces for vocal ensemble, mostly in three parts, with about half-a-dozen in four. Seventeen of the pieces are instrumental, though it is perfectly possible (and historically accurate) to play the vocal pieces on instruments if preferred. In the instrumental pieces no instruments are stipulated. The top staff is treble, the second is written in the trebleclef but sounds an octave lower, as for vocal tenor, and the lowest line is a for a bass clef melody instrument. Either flute or recorder would work well for the top line in most of these pieces, which usually go no lower than around middle C. The bassoon could play either the second or third line. And the line left over could be played on keyboard. This is not harmonic music however. There are no chords, nor would it be easy of idiomatic for the keyboard player to vamp or otherwise extemporise harmonies. The pieces are printed in score, so two players might share one copy, but two copies would be ideal if the keyboard player is also taking part, and three of course if the players want to practise separately./ Recueil / Piano

In the style of medieval dance, this authentic setting transports all to the time of Henry VIII. Though his court was infamous as well as lavish, music and dance were a central part of courtly life. With many opportunities for technical development, all parts remain in 1st position. (3:20) / Orchestre A Cordes

A popular legend has attributed the tune to King Henry VIII but in reality it is unlikely to have been written by him and probably dates from the Elizabethan era. It has remained popular for over four centuries and has been arranged many times most famously by Ralph Vaughan Williams in his Fantasia on Greensleeves.My Ladye Greensleeves has been arranged for SATB chorus by Norman Stone. It includes a Piano reduction for rehearsal purposes.
