Today is the #4thDayofChristmas, and #InnocentsDay or #Childermas, so here's an #anonymous #16thCentury #song for the day.
The 'Coventry' #carol is probably the best known of #Tudor #carols, would have been sung originally by the women in The #Pageant of the Shearmen & Taylors, one of the #Coventry #MysteryPlays.

Eleanor Cramer: #soprano
Christopher Goodwin: #lute
Alison Kinder: bass #viol
Tamsin Lewis: #alto
Jack Merivale:# bass
