The Battle Pavane

The Battle Pavane

The Battle Pavane is a classic and well-known song written by Tielman Susato in 1551 as part of "alderhande Danserye".

In recent decades Bob Margolis' arrangement of it has gained mass popularity among high school wind ensembles. The song is often played by Rennaissance-style bands and always features a large trumpet part. The piece begins with a quiet, sustained melody. It ends with a heavily accented fanfare of trumpets. This piece is very typical of the mid-sixteenth century court music and would have been played by a small orchestra.
