    care and attention. The music, for
instance, incidental to the play, has
been especially arranged by Arnold
Dolmetsch, perhaps the best living
authority in music of the middle
ages. Mr. Dolmetsch was com
missioned by Mr. Greet to arrange
the original music of Shakespeare's
plays. He spent an entice summer
in the British Museum for this pur
pose. There he was able to secure
the original music. and set the
songs to new airs in the Elizabethan
fashion.
Some of the most interesting
music used in the Ben Greet per
formance is in Macbeth, where the
greater part of the music consists of
sixteenth century Scotch tunes,
taken from the Straloch manuscript,
a precious volume containing the
oldest Scotch music known.
In the Merchant of Venice, dur
ing the casket scene, two famous
Elizabethan tunes are introduced—
for the Prince of Morocco "The
King's Morisco" and for the Prince of
Aragon, "Spagnioletta." The origi
nal music of the song "Tell me
where is Fancy Bred" being lost,
a new setting in the Elizabethan
style has been written b 3 Arnold
Dolmetsch. The music in the
Moonlight garden scene in Act V
consists of three Venetian tunes :
"Alta Regina" and "Bassa Du
calo" two exquisite pieces for the
viola do gamba and lute, printed in
Venice in 1586; and "La Forlana,"
a graceful dance for viols and
harpsichord.
