Christmas Anthems
Christmas Anthems
Adult Choir
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.
