Sting "If on a winter's night"

This October... while browsing a local store, in the hope of finding new musical treasure for this coming season... I stumbled upon a CD with a beautiful photo of large trees which were covered by newly fallen snow. The photo imagery also produced a dark image of a man walking along side his dog, amongst what seem to be either large Cedar, or White Birch trees. Needless to say, the photo sparked my curiosity! The description further seduced my soul...

"If on a winter's night" is truly a must have collection of folk and traditional English songs, some of which span from the 14Th century! This collection of song has been personally gathered by Sting himself, most taken from the British Isles. This winter collection is quite intimate, authentic and extremely well done! You will fade into another place and time as you realize an almost dream state, as you relax and absorb each tranquil and at times festive musical masterpiece. This collection is as genuine as the centuries of English and Irish & Scottish tradition/history in which it conjures! Beautifully done Sting! Thank you for straying from the main stream and having the courage to walk that crooked path! -Richard Peacock
