    Heroic Knight Saga: The Shore at the End of the World

    Listen: youtube.com/watch?v=99ndCvhpvvg

    A place perpetually in twilight. The vast ocean reaches out endlessly, disappearing into the horizon. Crumbling ruins are strewn about the shore and some stone pillars reach out of the water in the distance, but most of the ancient structures that used to be here have fallen into the sea. There's a tavern and an inn for travelers passing through and a few houses for local residents, but not much else. Though many have set out to discover what's beyond this place, magic cannot reach far enough to see if anything exists on a farther shore and any ships that set out always reach the same impassable, never-ending storm and must return. As far as anyone knows, the world ends here.

  4. Something for #europeday...

    Europe's Revels, a dance by John Eccles, from his interlude, Europe's Revels for the Peace, which was performed at court and at London theatres in 1697.
    This image of the dance comes from The Dancing Master, Henry Playford, 1698

  5. 6 January is the feast of the #Epiphany, so here is Vidimus Stellam, an early #17thCentury #motet for the day by William #Byrd, from #Gradualia, 1607.

    Eleanor Cramer: #soprano
    Christopher Goodwin: #lute
    Alison Kinder: bass #viol
    Tamsin Lewis: tenor viol

    Vidimus stellam in Orientem, et venimus cum muneribus adorare Dominum.
    We have seen a star in the East, and have come with gifts to adore the Lord.
