And so, to complete our Seasonal Quartergy we submit to you our Summer offering.
Included in this latest collection are a range of Celtic, English, American and even
some music of the Norse, where Summer is a much-loved season.
"... liven up your summer -- and party like it's 1599!"   --Crow and Wolf Music

"I have been so touched by your music. I love everything about the CD, from the picture
on the front to each song... In its own way, I think your music
makes the whole world a better place for hearing it."   --Linda B.

Barley Rigs

Our Autumnal offering we now unveil, a historical soundtrack to the sharing of the harvest.
Scottish, Irish, French and English songs of barley and wine, celebration and loss, pious virtue
and reckless abandon, this is our most earthen concoction to date.
We serve it with agrarian boldness and spice it with jubilant wonder.

"...Barley Rigs reminds us that in the fields and forests, autumn is the time of red apples
and golden grains, when the worry of the growing season is rewarded by the bounty of the harvest." --Rambles Magazine

Gathering May

In honor of the return of Spring, we offer sixteen fine traditional songs and melodies.
From winsome lullaby to impassioned stomp, this CD will bring a full range of musical meaning
to the gentle warming of the earth. In this, vol. 2 of our quartergy,
we traverse hundreds of years of musical history, having choosen favorites
from many European sources, especially Celtic, French and English.

May the muse intensify the gladness of this season, as we join hands with those who came before.

Sir Christèmas

Sir Christèmas: a joyous tour through some of our favorite Yuletide music. Sometimes angelic and beautiful, sometimes strange and haunting, this collection is sure to deepen your experience of the frosty winter months. Glistening with over five hundred years of Western history, straying into French,
Spanish, and Old English, bridging both Christian and Pagan themes, the music
suggests celebration, for whosoever it is intended.

"This is not your father's Christmas music. You would have to go back a lot more generations to even be close... The full effect is music that transports you back more smoothly than any time machine,
with all the aural brilliance and without all the hardship and disease.
It's a Medieval and Renaissance classic for the 21st century. -- Victory Review

Brocelïande

Brocelïande's debut recording includes original arrangements of a variety of traditional and Early music.
It ranges in feel from driving, danceable Celtic and Medieval beats to haunting, atmospherically lovely ballads to the exciting 4-part vocals of a capella Renaissance madrigals. The evocative lyrics,
including some in Medieval French and Portuguese, speak of love and longing,
quests and revels, magic and transformation.
