Cantefable is a term from the Middle Ages for a story, which is partly spoken and partly sung or accompanied by music. This children’s programme – created and performed by Nancy Thym and Thilo Viehrig – is a refreshing blend of medieval and traditional music interwoven with stories and dance which transports the listener to far-off times and places.
How Jack Discovered Music: a tale with the rod puppet Jack, featuring several musical instruments.
Jack lives in a world where “music” only comes out of a little red can. One day he becomes lost and discovers an old man and woman in the forest. They play a variety of old instruments like harp, hurdy-gurdy, lyre and fiddle. With the help of a rod puppet the instruments are explained. It becomes humorous when Jack identifies the hurdy-gurdy as a coffee grinder and the harp as a bread cutting machine! The children have many opportunities to participate and to sing along.
CANTEFABLE:
Nancy Thym – storytelling, voice, harp, hurdy-gurdy
Thilo Viehrig – Novgorod lyre, medieval fiddle, rebec
