Scott Cooper | Help: Folk Songs with Christmas connections (27) | RE: Help: Folk Songs with Christmas connections | 22 Sep 99 |
Another less trad carol is a recent setting by John Gorka to his original tune of Longfellow's "Christmas Bells." I got it from Windham Hill's "A Winter's Solstice III." A very pretty, 'folky' tune. One of my all time favourite traditional carols is the Wessex Carol, but the tune might be a little challenging. The last suggestion would be another more modern but folk-styled song: Jake Thackery's "Bethlehem." That one might be tough to find. Slainte |
