Hello,
  I got my copy of, Olde Carols (Carols for Christmas and Other Festive Times)  
at the Over the Water Hurdy Gurdy festival. Their website is 
www.overthewater.org  perhaps someone else on the list knows how to get a hold 
of the book. Perhaps writing to the address I found inside the cover. Cali or 
Alden may know?

    Hello,
  A Christmas tune that cali suggested for me to learn, out of the book of 
christmas tunes that Joanne Andrus edited, that is fairly easy and sounds nice 
is Branle de L'Official. It is a C drone. The book is chock full of christmas 
music and has them listed by C, G, and A drone.
   
  It is published by Cranky Dog Music

  Hi!

I wondered if anybody had suggestions for Christmas tunes that sound 
particularly good on the hurdy gurdy. I know some tunes sound better on one 
instrument than another (Carol of the Bells is wonderful on hammered dulcimer); 
are there any that you find really magical on the hurdy gurdy?

Tunes I like that I play now include:
* medley: O Come O Come Emmanuel (slowly with middle G drone) / God Rest Ye 
Merry Gentlemen (medium speed with all 3 G drones)
* What Child Is This? [Greensleeves] (C drone)
* O Come, All Ye Faithful (adding a drone each repeat)
* Auld Lang Syne (all 3 G and 1 C drones)

Best regards,

-Gary P.
