A musical interlude

The historic building where I play is generally closed on Thursdays and Fridays. This week I have access on both days, because people are doing up the garden. I must say it's starting to look beautiful.
Yesterday afternoon  I rehearsed my program for Saturday, and will do the same this afternoon.
I'm playing five Pavan & Galliard pairings by William Byrd, each of which takes between five and ten minutes to play. In between I'll play about twenty-odd smaller pieces, mostly by Byrd, but with a few by Giles and Richard Farnaby, and one by John Bull. I'm getting geared up for it now.
