Thread Name: Origins: Brigg Fair
Subject: RE: Origins: Brigg Fair
we will have to disagree+,
why not check the manuscripts which i have done
the first bars of dives[broadwood ]are completely different are quite clearly not in a major key, however brigg fair which starts in a major key.
this is a bit like the notes are the same but not in the right order, the fact that that the opening two bars of brigg fair and bars 9 and 10 of lazrus are the same notes[but in a different time does not make them the same feckin tune at all, they are also in a different tempo and have a completely different feel .
brigg fair starts off in a happy mood and is bitterswett at the end . dives and lazarus is mournful miserable throughout.
