Tucket

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tucket is a musical term often found in stage directions in Elizabethan drama. It represents:

... Then let the trumpets sound
The tucket sonance and the note to mount.
Henry V, act 4 scene 2.



... And there, amid the sounding of tuckets and the clash of armoured soldiery and horses continually moving forth, Dick and Joan sat side by side...
