Hello, my ex-secret Santa!

I have an excellent book called

Elizabethan Songbook, edited by WH.Auden, C.Kallman, N.Greenberg, 1968.

There are some very nice songs in it, and I especially like the music of
Classical Music Archives: early music - C index and http://www.classicalarchives.com/early/d.html.

The Classical Music Archives is worth signing up for so that you can download some midis. Very well-crafted midis, they are, too!

One of my very favourite sites to surf around in.

I'll hunt out my book and tell you the name of my favourite songs in it. The intro is worth reading too. You should be able to get it through the library, or on loan from another library.
