What do Renaissance mensuration signs (time signatures) tell us about the tempo of a piece and how do we move from duple to triple in the same composition? In this session we will explore Renaissance Tempus (time) and tactus (beat). Play or sing to musical examples with time changes from 1500 to 1600.

Pitch A=440.
Singers and instruments, all levels
