09 Nov 21 - 03:18 PM (#4125651) Subject: Folklore: A talk about Christmas carols From: Fiery Dragon I will be giving a talk about English Christmas carols at Bath Royal Literary and Scientific Institution (BRLSI) at 7.30pm on Friday 10 December. I will be uncovering archaeological layers in the history of carols and coming to some perhaps surprising conclusions. I’ll also be talking about the recent renewed interest in unusual old carols and where people are singing them in pubs. This is a hybrid event, so as well as a live audience there will also be people attending via Zoom, so if you like you can sign up to attend via Zoom in the comfort of your own home. I do hope you’ll be able to make it. Here is the link to the event: https://www.brlsi.org/whatson/english-christmas-carols/ |

I'm interested in Christmas carols, because I just read somewhere that Christmas songs were the beginning of what we think of as popular music. Please come back on the Mudcat on Dec 9 with a reminder, because I put things on my calendar, then I forget to look at the calendar. |
