Mary Mc: I've a CD by the Boston Camerata called An American Christmas which I enjoy very much. It is still available on Amazon second hand. Some of the songs on this CD are founding period, though others drift into the 19th Century. This music seems to be mostly originating with the Calvinist branch of the Protestant family. The authentic performance techniques/sounds are both moving and intriguing. best Juliet Waldron Independent Heart www.hardshell.com<http://www.hardshell.com/> www.fictionwise.com<http://www.fictionwise.com/> www.julietwaldron.com<http://www.julietwaldron.com/>
