I've been working on a project arranging selected Christmas Carols
for viols over the past few years, and thought I'd share some of
them with you as a way of wishing everyone Happy Holidays. They are
here:

Of course, my broken-down little computer with it's ancient Turtle
Beach synthesizer doesn't have very good orchestral strings, so
you'll have to put up with the annoying messa da voce swell on each
note, but that's the best I can do.
Also, my viol consort has begun a recording project with an NYU
student. He's doing a 5-channel surround-sound recording of our 5-
part consort. We did a test in early December, and here's a first
stereo mix of the results:

As we didn't know the piece very well and had one member who was
deathly ill, so it was something of a rocky session, but the
recording is pretty good for us. I'm proud of it, at least. Maybe
you'll enjoy it, too.
