Tune of the Day: La Quille
from “Amusement palatin”
This piece is the sixth movement of Amusement palatin, a suite for solo instrument (“musette, vielle, flute and oboe” according to the original edition) and continuo by the French Baroque composer Nicolas Chédeville. The French word quille can mean either a ninepin/skittle, or the keel of a ship or boat.
