吉他学习—乐曲形式—布朗莱舞（Branle）

　　Branle，法／意：brando；英：brawl，brangill；布朗莱舞，布朗莱舞曲，15世纪时，原为低步舞中的一个舞步，后来演变为一种摇摆动作的舞蹈，16、17世纪盛行于法国和其它国家，包括英国。布朗莱可歌可舞，并且有多种不同的形式，如勃艮第布朗莱舞、香槟布朗莱舞、单布朗莱舞、双布朗莱舞、欢快布朗莱舞等。
　　有些布朗莱舞曲是两拍子的，如单布朗莱舞曲；象欢快布朗莱舞曲则是3拍子的，作为一种音乐形式，不同形式的布朗莱舞曲有其各自的特点，下面这段引述可供参考：
　　“The Double Branle has a simple form involving two phrases of two bars each. This form was not sufficiently different from the pavan to be of interest to composers and so pieces with these names rarely occur in the instrumental books of the time unless they are specifically designed for dancers.
　　The Single Branle, however, consists of a phrase of two bars, followed by a phrase of one bar and appears in numerous places. Likewise the Gay Branle consists of two phrases of two bars each, but in 3/4 time, and so was also widely used.
　　The Burgundian Branle as described by Arbeau is of the same structure as the Double Branle, but played with a lighter feel. Musical sources however often give an irregular structure for this dance.”
