l Adam Lay YboundenDouglas Green. This
setting of an anonymous English 15th-century text
accounts the act of Adam's original sin and the
subsequent events leading to the birth of Mary,
the Mother of God. Reminiscent of a Renaissance
motet, this short, a cappella piece starts in unison
and then divides into a full SATB texture. Useful
throughout Christmastide and particularly for
celebrations of Mary, Mother of God.

Adam Lay YboundenSheldon Curry.
Hearkening back to the days of medieval poetry,
wandering minstrels and mystery plays, hear the
sounds and musical styles of early Britain. The
ancient Christmas poem takes on a whole new
vitality in a rousing 6/8 raucous dance feel. The
optional Hurdy Gurdy is playable by any of several
"drone" instruments, synthesizer or, if you can find
one, a real Hurdy Gurdy. The percussion instruments
and oboe are also optional but add a real sense of
flair to the occasion. The celebration winds up in a
canonic jig of boundless joy.
