Heather Dale</st1:PlaceName></st1:place> did a live recording of a bardic
session entitled "The Bardic Kitchen Party", as performed by The
Ealdormere Bardic College (<a href="http://www.amphismusic.com/bards/">http://www.amphismusic.com/bards/</a>
and http://bards.ca). It was a fantastic compilation of music, poetry,
song, and story recorded in an impromptu and open setting. When listened
one is transported to a real Ealdormerean bardic circle. She managed to
capture the pure essence of the bardic circle; the energy, the excitement, and
the camaraderie, on two CDs.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

had a record label called Amphisbaena Music. She had to shut it down because
of an ever increasing demand from her tour schedule, but showcased many of the
SCA's most talented musicians (technically the label is still active, but
currently features only her).<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

Katrina the Renaissance Festival music podcast in combination with Modern Bard
created a compilation CD called the Circle. It was a collection of 22
songs from across the Renaissance Festival world.

music archive (http://sca.uwaterloo.ca/~praetzel/sca-music.html), another proud
product of the Empire of Ealdormere, uh, I mean kingdom. The dance and
music archive has been populated by dozens of redactionists and historians from
throughout the SCA. Eric sells CDs that compile the various dance tunes
found on the website. One will find the CDs in every kingdom as a source
of band in the box music for dance practices.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

can't remember...?<br>
<br>
And I want to add Wicked Tinkers, for listening. I'm trying to put together a
list of CDs for listening, and also for getting singers material to listen to
for the whole spectrum of bardic.<br>
<br>
I think An Tir put a CD together a while ago, does anyone know about that?<br>
<br>
I really need to pull my socks up, and drag out that Google search I did....
Isn't there something out there called the SCA Bardic Sampler that has some
crackerjack stuff on it?<br>
<br>
Esther... er, Emma, I think, maybe?<br>
