Dale Carr | A Pavyon by Master Newman, performed by Dale Carr on a harpsichord made by Hendrik Broekman in 1975 @dalecarr6361 | Uploaded February 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
A Pavyon by Master Newman, performed by Dale Carr in the church in Middelbert {Groningen} on 25 April, 1987, on a harpsichord made by Hendrik Broekman in 1975
Master Newman's Pavyon is preserved in the Mulliner book, copied by Thos. Mulliner around 1545-70 & now in the British Library {Add MS 30513}. {Fortunately I copied this piece from the online MS before the library's computer system was hacked recently.} A 'Fancy' by Newman is also found in the MS, but otherwise he is rather obscure.
The work is in 4 sections, which is unusual; each section has repeat marks. Pavans by Byrd & later generations of English keyboard composers, for example, are almost always in 3 sections, and are frequently paired with a Galliard. Newman's work also seems to invite a faster tempo than the more ornate and polyphonic later examples can readily bear.
