- Made a court baroness at Kingdom Arts & Sciences Championship XXXVI/2002
I had the honour of being Isolde's first Apprentice after she was made a Companion of the Order of the Laurel. We had been good friends and performers together, and already had a teaching relationship in place. I learned a very great deal from this brilliant musician and performer.
Isolde plays the hurdy-gurdy, or vielle-a-roue (violin with a wheel), a very cool period instrument with keys and strings and a crank-turned wheel. She also plays guitar and lute and pretty much any other instrument she sets her hands to, and she has a phenomenal voice, rich and sweet and full of character and emotion. She can set a hall to crying with a few, select notes.
She is also an excellent costumer, with an eye for the fine details and accessories, and a collection of fabric and trim rarely equaled.
But she has also given a great deal of herself to the Kingdom of An Tir. When she took note of the tangled pieces of ribbon awards were being presented upon, she took it upon herself to bead necklaces instead, and offered them to each sitting Royal couple, eventually expanding the colour scheme to allow each King and Queen to add a colour to An Tir's palette of black, silver and gold, to make their reign's awards distinct. She did this purely from a desire to see the Kingdom shine, donating all materials and labour for the project.
In addition, her years of performance and competition gave her unique insight, and her exacting mind helped her make solid changes to various Arts and Sciences competitions, to increase their fairness and level of competitiveness. She helped create effective costume competition forms, and when the time came to create a Kingdom Arts and SciencesChampionship, she was in at the ground floor, helping design fair forms for all the different categories of competition. When An Tir found it mete to create a Bardic Championship, she was a natural to go to for input on the criteria.
She teaches and shares her knowledge continuously, and serves as a fine example of Service and dedication in the SCA. - Briana
Because of Isolde's long and continued service to the Kingdom, she was made a Pelican on July 19, AS XXXVIII/2003. - Agnes berengarii de girona, apprentice to Mistress Isolde
