The Jongleur for Piano - Adam Skoumal
This composition has been written for 68th Praque Spring International Music Competition 2016.
"I can play the lute, vielle, pipe, bagpipe, harp, fiddle, psaltery, tabor... I can jump rope most extraordinary and amusing. I can throw knives into the air and catch them without cutting my fingers. I can balance chairs, and make tables dance. I can somersault, and walk doing a handstand. I can sing a song well, make tales to please young ladies, and can play the gallant for them if necessary..." Anonym, Middle Ages (www.medieval-life-and-times.info/medieval-music/jongleurs.htm)
