12/19/2006 Archived Entry: "The Christmas Revels"

I've mentioned the Christmas Revels before. It's a mix of classical, folky, and other music that pleases me a lot. In 1992 I said I'd be sure to attend the local group (based in Tacoma) the next year but I did not. They are performing tonight and tomorrow evening so if you live around here you could still go -- I enjoyed them when I saw their shows in the nineties, but the Tacoma location makes it more difficult. Again I say, next year! I'll try to find a place near the theater to have dinner and recruit some friends to go with us.

I treated myself to a new CD from the main Revels group yesterday, Rose and Thistle which is half English and half Scottish music. Very fun and made me feel very Solstice-Christmassy! There are lots of audio clips from the many Revels CDs on their business site so you can hear the variety of what they do.
