jendobyns Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Hmm, not a lot of recordings, but a number of accessible concerts, by David and Ginger Hildebrand. IIRC, David did his Master's Thesis on Colonial Music in the Chesapeake region. Their website is: http://www.colonialmusic.org/ and if you look at their catalog it lists current recordings. Their schedule includes Put-In Bay later this season. David and Ginger are nice folks, very informed about period music. There was also a group of three gentlemen from Williamsburg, who were musicians there, who had good tavern type music. When I can locate their CD's (or tapes, yes, it's been that long ago) I'll share their info, too. Right now, though, I'm up to my neck in making sugar loaves and ship's biscuit!
