The Spirit of Christmas Past, Fleurs de Lys, Desford Village Hall,
Take a Christmas of old with beautiful medieval
music and song mixed with traditional folk
carols, local Wassails, fascinating yuletide
anecdotes and a bit of 'mumming' (seasonal folk
play)
Early music ensemble Fleurs de Lys are joined
by historian, singer and story teller, Thor Ewing
to bring you songs of the Christmas Story;
of pilgrimage and devotion; of drinking and
feasting; of dancing and celebration - all with
exquisite vocal harmonies and accompanied
on early instruments such as the hurdy gurdy,
medieval fiddle and pipes.
A magical festive treat!
