This is a "she-woop-de-wop" version of Thomas Morley's madrigal "Though Philomela lost her love"
The arrangement was made by Richard McHale by special request for performance at the final dinner and celebration at an early music course.

I later transcribed it from the scraps of paper and, with Richard's permission, am uploading it here.
If you would like to perform this alongside the Morley original, several frees scores of that are available at:

The sound sample is my own performance (as the dwschorale) - with the sections marked "improvise" duly improvised...- other improvisations are welcome!)
It can also be heard alongside the Morley original in this video:
"Philomela across the centuries"
