Pavane for a dying prince

Pavane for a dying prince, for prince he was, is my lament for John Fleagle, my enigmatic, but charismatic, partner in my early years of a musical career. It is the second movement of Sweet Ladyslipper, recorded on Gyre CD "His own new works." Complete sheet music and CD are both available at www.gyremusic.com.
