JAR SESSION 09:THE HUMORS in FOUR PARTS

JUNIOR ASPIRIN PODCAST 09: THE HUMORS, in FOUR PARTS....Four reflections on medieval humorism. Like Rick Wakeman said of his "Six wives of Henry VIII" , these are not meant to be taken as literal representations of the four medieval temperaments... rather a contemporary redressing of an imbalance of humors.Devised and selected by Patrick Gibson.Part One - Sanguine.Laughing the loudest and wearing the flashiest outfits, a courageous selection of tracks. Ultimately lending themselves to sketches, life drawings, and rustic scenes. The humor of Sanguine is usually treated with leeches. PODCAST HEREPart Two - Choleric.BILE BILE BILE a fiery YELLOW grouping. There is nothing I love as much as a good fight. A natural superabundance of the choleric. PODCAST HEREPart Three - Melancholic.Semper Dowland, semper dolens. Melancholy Dane. Indolent dreaming wistfulness. Where is the ring I gave to Nancy Spain? PODCAST HEREPart Four - Phlegmatic.Get up late in the morning; Dorian mode on C; Take a nap; Eat; In this case the mode is the Phrygian; Take another nap; Go to bed.
