Bards & Minstrels on November 11


Often the bard and the minstrel say what even the most elegant prose cannot. Please take a few minutes—a pittance of time—to experience these songs from many nations. Please

  1. The poignancy of those songs reminds me that there couldn’t be a war or a peace without spawning such music.

  2. I have to admit that I normally wouldn't hear more than a few seconds of these songs because they're not a style of music that I particularly like. But today I listened. Very moving.

  3. Thank you, Nick, that is such a moving musical tribute for all our soldiers. The last one in particular gave me goose bumps and made my eyes leak. Blessings to all.

  11. Yes, the Bards and Minstrels tell our stories.

    Thanks for the nice assortment of musical videos, Nick.

    (I have to say that I'm particularly biased toward Mr. Taylor's)
