Open Mouth, produce song.
Ok, time to sing a lot again. Outside of my favorite 5, what song would you have me practice so you can hear me sing it sometime?
The Favorite Five:
1. Conn of Calontir's "Crusader Song" aka "Holy Land Sailing"
2. Siobhan the Fiddler's "To the West"
3. Trad, "The Parting Glass"
4. Stan Rodgers, "Barrett's Privateers"
5. "Vitrum Nostrum"
Spot doesn't count, but it's still here.
Dance Songs? Calontiri marching Songs? Show tunes? Burden of the Crown? Hey Landskenect (Gerhard)?
Perhaps I should find some 14th century stuff for the play date. Hmm. Any suggestions?

Love your favourite five! Miss hearing you sing. Fancy a trip to Milan? ;-)
The songs from the Llibre Vermell de Monsterrat are 14th Century, and all beautiful. You could also have much fun with them--as I understand the story they were written by the monks to popular tunes of the day because they were sick of the pilgrims singing "inappropriate" songs to celebrate their arrival. The "inappropriate" versions haven't survived, but you could write them...
