And I forgot to thank you for the suggestion of the song, which I discovered yesterday sounds absolutely luscious on the whistle.
I'm going to try putting it in a set with "Adam Lay y'Bounden" and "Lullay, My Liking," which are from the same time period and have a similar sound.

I was wondering if you could email me the music to "Adam Lay y' Bounden" and "Lullay My Liking" I am not familiar with those two songs and I have not been able to find a song to play along with it.
I can either open a jpeg or abc.
You can reach me at

A Pre-thanks to you.

Will do! May not be until tonight, as I'll have to scan them. They're not scored for whistle, so you may have to play with the key a bit...I haven't had a chance to noodle them out yet (If I do before I send them, I'll include the starting note and any comments I can think of, such as what may need to be half-holed).

Just sent 'em off. Let me know if you have trouble reading the images, or my somewhat idiosyncratic scribing

P.S. If you like carols, a really good resource to have on your shelves is "The New Oxford Book of Carols." It's a big, fat book that has just about every carol ever sung in it (including different tunes, where such exist, and interesting historical and performance notes on each). Another great book to have is "Carols for Choirs," which is a treasured resource in the Episcopal Church (most of our music for our famous "Lessons and Carols" services are drawn from it). In addition, if you have an Episcopal/Anglican church in your area that offers a Lessons and Carols service during Advent or Christmastide, it's worth going...you'll often hear obscure carols you've likely never heard before, as well as stock favorites (and it's a low-key service...just readings and music, with no preaching).
