Unfortunately this CD collection is no longer offered
as a physical disk, except directly from me. Amazon no longer offeres
this collection in their store, and it is no longer being manufactured
except by me personally. Please feel free to listen to it and purchase
the digital version through fugli.bandcamp.com.
One of the things that I enjoy doing is performing at
Renaissance and Medieval Faires. I perform under the stage name of
Fugli, an ancient Norse name that means "little bird." Interspersed
among my faire repertoire are several Christian oriented songs and
melodies. some I have written, and others come straight out of the
hymnal.
The Huzzah collection is a sort of "what if" exercise. What if the
"WoW" Christian Music CD collections had existed several hundred years
ago? How might they sound? What sorts of songs might be included?
So if you are partial to medieval church humor, and you like things
like Gregorian Chant, and hymn melodies played on harps and bodhrans,
this is my personal collection of just that. If you are inclined toward
more contemporary music, please just smile and move along. (In which
case you may wish to sample Antiephemeral
or Playing in the Water.)
Spirit Wind, a song about the
day of Pentecost, is one of the songs from this collection that I
wrote. A more modern sounding recording of this song is also present on
the CD Playing in the Water.
Another one of the songs
from this collection is the Reformation Polka.
The words are not my own, but instead were written by Robert Gebel. It
recounts some of Martin Luther's life.
This simple video of
just me playing "Be Thou My Vision" actually uses the basic words and
phrasing found on my Antiephemeral CD,
although much less "produced." This song also appears on Huzzah, but it
sounds more like a chant there, and the lyrics are a little different.
