about

A medley of three traditional instrumental tunes: La Tabacchera ("The Snuffbox") is Italian, while the second ("The Royal Mazurka") is French, and the third ("St Patrick's Reel") is probably French Canadian. We learned this last one years ago from a fiddle-playing friend, and it's quite unusual for a reel (at least in terms of any Celtic music we're familiar with), as the rhythm keeps shifting from 6/8 to 3/4 and back again.
Bill Jamieson: tenor recorder, soprano recorder, castanets

Gwen Jamieson: harp, hurdy-gurdy
Amy Reiswig: bells, shaker, dumbek
Penny Reiswig: cittern
Lael Whitehead: tenor recorder, soprano recorder
