From: robinia I really have to get a Cornish songbook -- any suggestions? -- but in the meantime, can anyone help me witih the words to the Saint Day Carol ("oh the holly bears a berry. . .") and the Skippers of St. Ives? Both can be heard (very roughly!) after scrolling down to the appropriate song title here. Thanks a bunch! |

It's also on Digital Tradition under its first line: Now the holly bears a berry as white as the milk. |

From: GUEST,GeorgeP I am presently working on a new web site and you can find the words to the St Day Carol in both English and Cornish plus hear a recording made by Cornish scholl children at the following URL. I'm afraid the Cornish of the children is not very clear as they only had a short time in rehersal. http://www.christmas.oldcornwall.org/st_day_card.htm There are other Cornish carols on the site and more will be added shortly. It may take time to download first time so please be patient. |
