Unfortunately, as an AI language model, I am not able to provide information on a specific musical composition without referring to a source. However, I can provide you with some general information on the structure and characteristics of an Almand. An Almand, also known as an Allemande, is a dance form that originated in the Renaissance period. It was typically performed in a moderate tempo and in duple meter. The dance was characterized by a series of flowing steps and turns, often accompanied by music played on a lute or other stringed instrument. In the Baroque period, the Almand evolved into a musical form that was often used as the opening movement of a suite. It was typically written in binary form, with two sections that were each repeated. The first section was usually in a minor key and featured a series of imitative phrases, while the second section was in a major key and featured more chordal writing. William Tisdale was a composer who lived in the late 16th and early 17th centuries. While there is no record of him having composed an Almand specifically, it is possible that he may have written music in this form as it was a popular dance and musical form during his lifetime. In general, the Almand is characterized by its flowing, dance-like quality and its use of imitative and chordal writing. It is a form that has been used by many composers throughout history, and continues to be studied and performed by musicians today.
