Product DescriptionTraditional Celtic music of the Winter season This album is a Celtic Mid-Winter Celebration. It takes you wassailing from house to house, on "waits", or with a Mari Lwyd group, to coax ale and cakes from the neighbors. (Wassail, by the way, from a Saxon phrase meaning "be well", is a potent warm drink of spiced ale.) It soothes you with lullabies, gets you dancing, and even singing along - on strange ancient carols, or with some of the old familiar standards. So join us by the fire, with a cup of wassail, spiced with nutmeg & ginger!
