Masque
The masque was a form of festive courtly entertainment that flourished in 16th- and early 17th-century Europe, though it was developed earlier in Italy, in forms including the intermedio (a public version of the masque was the pageant). A masque involved music and dancing, singing and acting, within an elaborate stage design, in which the architectural framing and costumes might be designed by a renowned architect, to present a deferential allegory flattering to the patron. Professional actors and musicians were hired for the speaking and singing parts. Often, the masquers who did not speak or sing were courtiers: King James I's queen consort, Anne of Denmark, frequently danced with her ladies in masques between 1603 and 1611, and Henry VIII and Charles I performed in the masques at their courts. In the tradition of masque, Louis XIV danced in ballets at Versailles with music by Jean-Baptiste Lully.
Development
Masque (Kansas album)
Masque is the third studio album by American progressive rock band Kansas, released in 1975. The album was reissued in remastered format on CD in 2001.
The opening track, "It Takes a Woman's Love (To Make a Man)", was remixed for release as a single, but failed to gain attention. The remix included additional guest vocals and contains segments far different from the album version. The album was remastered and issued on vinyl in 2014. It was also repackaged as Playlist: Masque, although several songs from Kansas, "The Devil Game" from Song for America, "No Room for a Stranger" from Audio-Visions, "Right Away" from Vinyl Confessions, but only "Two Cents Worth" and "All The World" from Masque appeared on the album.

CANO
CANO was a Canadian progressive rock band in the 1970s and 1980s. They were the most popular and internationally successful musical group in Franco-Ontarian history.
Origins
CANO evolved out of the Coopérative des artistes du Nouvel-Ontario (Artists' Cooperative of Northern Ontario), an artists' collective established in Sudbury, Ontario in 1970. The cooperative was responsible for developing many of the current cultural institutions of the city's Franco-Ontarian community — the Galerie du Nouvel-Ontario, the Théâtre du Nouvel-Ontario, La Nuit sur l'étang and the band CANO all evolved out of projects launched by artists associated with the cooperative.
While based primarily in Sudbury, the band also had collective ownership of a farm in Sturgeon Falls, where they did much of their recording.
Musical group
The group consisted of singer/guitarists André Paiement and Rachel Paiement, violinist Wasyl Kohut, guitarists Marcel Aymar and David Burt, pianist Michel Kendel, bassist John Doerr and drummer Michel Dasti. The band was formed in the fall of 1975, and performed their first concert on December 1 at La Slague in Sudbury.

Wash The Sun
by: MasqueThe task today
Will be to bring forth laughter with dead tools
And thereafter
Thereafter we shall dance like drunken fools
Disgust is gone
And replaced by the catch among the rye
But I'm left, unwashed
The most important persons say goodbye
I will wash the sun
With sweat I'll wash the sun
How sad it's to
Receive the strangest foreign flavours kiss
The kiss of some
Unknown things I now have learnt to miss
When it burns
My lust, my god will gladly meet the heat
Content. I'm washed
I'm happy stirring the ashes with my feet
I will wash the sun
Laid back I'll wash the sun
(Words: Sahlin Music: Rellmark)
