Naxos 8.550751

This CD (along with the selection of songs from the Piae Cantiones) is the Camerata's smallest-scale recording project to date. Only four voices are used throughout (Rebecca Outram, Deborah Mackay, Philip Cave, and Jeremy Summerly) although one of the tracks does also involve Jeremy Summerly playing the tambourine! The Christmas spirit was well captured by arranging to record this CD in December in sub-zero temperatures. The project attracted much attention and ultimately resulted in the millennial publication of a volume of medieval songs and carols by Faber Music entitled Passetime with good company! [ISBN 0-571-52033-2] edited by Jeremy Summerly.
