Really a Middle Ages style. In my head I see the common people walk on the dirty streets, mud everywhere. All dressed brown and black. It's very cold.
Life might have been much more simple those days, more pure.
Anyway, this could be a soundtrack for a movie about that time. You just captured the time spirit.
Nice sounds of old instruments, a strong mood.

A superb piece......historical perspective delivered with authenticity, passion, and reverence. You've managed to capture the gist of a moment in time, of an ultra-poignant Christmas of long ago. Brilliant concept executed with perfection, BRAVO!

Excellent track and great reading about the song
and knowing that feel about being 'in the teeth of
a nor'easter' as the music played. NICE!!!
It's amazing, Mike, how you manage with such a diverse stuff and at the same time stay very organic in your creation...
