MP3 Richard M. Loomis - New House
16 MP3 Songs
SPOKEN WORD: Audiobook, FOLK: Traditional Folk
Details:
Hear the words of the Romano-British founder of New House, witness the murder of Old Helen of Edinburgh, the visions of St. Gwenllian, the seizure of the Abbey by officers of King Henry VIII, enter the mansion built from the stones of the Abbey, listen to an Arabian tale invented by the Dowager of Hendy, kneel at the living spring of St. Elias.
That story is told in my book, "New House and Guto''r Glyn in 1492," published at https://www.tradebit.com and available from https://www.tradebit.com
"New House" on CD is an audiobook of readings from this book. Actors Gerald Godwin, Kathleen Godwin, and Rebecca Schmidt perform dialogue that brings "New House" to life, dramatizing notes, poems, legends, tales, journals.
Musicians William L. Nash, III (pianist), Meryl Davis (soloist), Wesley Simmers and Jean Duda (chorus) perform ancient and modern folk songs that take you to Wales. The Welsh words may be unfamiliar, but the realities they name are universal. Hiraeth means "Longing." Hwiangerdd Mair is "Mary''s Lullaby." Y Mochyn Du [a comic elegy] is "The Black Pig." Bwthyn fy Nain is "My Grandmother''s Cottage."
This Loomis Audiobook is the first of a planned series. The next is in production, a dramatic reading of my novel, "Ragnarsdatter," about coming of age in 1939-40.
