In addition to publishing chansons, masses and motets by well-known composers such as Janequin, Josquin, Lassus and Willaert, Susato also composed himself and issued The Danserye in 1551. It was a collection of dances, some probably based on popular Flemish airs of the time, which was published to be playable by various instrumental combinations to cater for the many amateur and professional consorts that existed during the period. Battle Pavan is strong in its harmonic and melodic simplicity and transcribes particularly well for the beginning wind band.
