So, here’s another little Michael East madrigal for us to sing!  Quite an easy one, I think, this time.  As always with this sort of piece, keep the lines light, and with a bit of bounce to them.  Be aware of the Da Capo al fine marking at the end that sends you back to the beginning to sing the first 16 bars over again.  Have fun!  Drop a line if you’re having difficulty with anything––audio parts included.
