Finished my Christmas EP. Here's the tracklisting and more info:
1. Gaudete – 16th Century
2. Coventry Carol – 16th Century – such a sad song, story can be found here and here
3. In Dulci Jubilo – 15th Century
4. Un Flambeau, Jeannette, Isabelle – 16th Century – done using a sample of a wine glass being hit by a pencil
5. Orientis Partibus – 12th Century – an ancient melody, now known for the song The Friendly Beasts
6. Boar’s Head Carol – 15th Century
7. Tempus Adest Floridum – 13th Century – which you may know as Good King Wenceslas
8. Here We Come a-Wassailing – 17th Century – and I had to finish with a bit of New Year's Eve paganism, what is Christmas after all? Nothing more than a pagan winter festival absorbed by Christianity. Remember: Father Christmas isn't Santa, and he wears a green robe.
