If you’re looking to get in a medievalish Christmas mood, check out the “MDT Christmas” playlist on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5EmlXCdeLV3HPmspb0I9AX?si=306a5306cd9e401e
The playlist features both authentic medieval tunes as well as pieces that feel medieval in spirit.
Note: I have actually curated and organized the playlist as a sequence, which helps avoid repeats. Shuffle it at your own risk (of hearing “Coventry Carol” five times in a row).
