Here are three variations on a piece written by sixteenth century Spanish musician, composer and choirmaster, Diego Ortiz.
This version is played at very high tempo, with a recorder. The pipe adds a lively air to the piece; taken together with the change in tempo, it's almost a different song.
Here's a variation with a crumhorn, which has much the sound of a giant kazoo. There's also a tambourine, and a harpsichord instead of the strings.
An interesting piece, and strong enough to handle the variations well.
