I just read this article:


550 year old Christmas carol

Forgotten Christmas carol to be brought back to life after 550 years by Newcastle Cathedral

"Church-goers and music aficionados are in for a treat this Christmas, as Britain's Newcastle Cathedral Choir will perform a medieval carol for the first time in over 500 years.

"Professor Andrew Wathey, vice-chancellor and chief executive of Newcastle's Northumbria University, found the carol — Parit Virgo filium — in a 15th-century manuscript at Cambridge University Library."

I will be looking out for the video of the performance. It's not very often that a new piece of music turns up and gets performed.

When I saw the name of Newcastle Cathedral I thought for a split second that it was Newcastle Oz, where I live, but no. It was more likely to be Newcastle in the UK.
