Details:
Free Reed's award-winning Revival Masters series of box-sets has so far explored the careers of some of the greatest folk and folk-rock stars. This UK label's next release dedicates four CDs and a 156-page book to the music and traditions of MIDWINTER... the period that Americans now refer to as "the holidays". Most of the key elements and a great many of the songs that make up what we call the Traditional Christmas began life in America but as this set shows there are midwinter traditions which stretch back hundreds of years before the birth of Jesus - including practices both pious and pagan which were among the first exports from Britain to the New World. The set's 115 recordings include music and readings from both sides of the Atlantic and cover an astounding range of traditional genres - from Sacred Harp to the Sheffield Carols big ballads to blues singer-songwriters and tradition-bearers living legends and recent stars. For the first time in its Revival Masters series Free Reed is proud to include a who's who of stars of the American folk scene Joan Baez Jean Ritchie
