Recorded at "AN ANCIENT YULE" TOUR with the Heather Dale Band and S.J. Tucker" concert on November 20, 2012, in the Pegasus Games Playground in Madison, WI. Notes from program:Midwinter has always been a time for reflection, sharing and celebration. Since ancient times, people have gathered together to experience the turning of the new year, tellign tales of holy mystery and cheerful good fortune; this universal sense of excitement continues to be expressed in a multitude of ways around the world. We've delved into the wealth of pre-1700AD seasonal music with the intent of evoking this sense of camaraderie. Regardless of your faith or philosophy, we hope you will find a common ground in these songs. Here's to the joy of the season!"

Es Est Win' Ros' (15th c.) This popular German carol is based on Isaiah 11:1, and was translated as "Lo, How a Rose E'er Blooming" in 1894.
