Morley's Canzonets for Two Voyces

These are some of the most popular duets from the Renaissance era. If
you like to sing or play with other people, these are a good place to
start exploring the world of Renaissance Polyphony. Morley was famous
not only as a composer and performer, but also as a music teacher. He
wrote the Music for Dummies of his day. (A Plaine and Easie
Introduction to Musicke
)

For recorder players, almost all of them fit well on C instruments, in
most cases two equal instruments (either sopranos or tenors); or in
a few cases a soprano and a lower instrument, either Alto or Tenor.

They are available in 2
spiral-bound partbooks from the Serpent Publications

large, easy-to-read type.
