Christmas Song!
Published at: 07/11/2025
If you’re wondering what your musical friends would like for Christmas, Yale have a 50% offer during November. Song is going for a song...I mean, it’s cheap at the full price of £20, but a tenner? By a tenor? You don't even have to order from an ethically dodgy mega site. There’s also 50% off the audiobook here.
One reviewer took exception to my choice of the Gershwins' ‘Summertime'. I haven’t changed my mind and I was very pleased to discover a TikTok clip from the History.Extra podcast which gives an idea of what I feel about it.
While on the subject of Christmas...don't forget Trio Mediaeval's Yule album, which has three Grammy Nominations (sadly not for my liner note). It's unlike any other Christmas album.
Back at the workface, copy editing is about to commence, so I'm already on to Christmas even though publication isn't due for another ten months. Season's greetings all!
