- Music
Besard was a highly respected French lutenist who was also trained as a lawyer. His large collection of his own and other composer's music was published in Cologne in 1603.
The branle was a lively country dance, often characterized by an unchanging or "drone" bass. This dance depends for its effectiveness on a fast tempo.
