The Green and Salty Days
Newman Sound Men's Choir is pleased to announce the release of their debut CD, The Green and Salty Days.
The CD is a collection of newly-composed and traditional folk music from Newfoundland and Labrador, England, Ireland and Scotland, with guest performances by two of the province's most celebrated folk singers, Fergus O'Byrne and Ron Hynes. Also featured on the CD are arrangements by the choir's own Sean Carroll as well as new commissioned works by Stephen Hatfield and Kathleen Allan.
You will be captivated by the powerful voices of Newman Sound singing some of your traditional favorites like Christmas in the Trenches and The St John's Waltz, as well as soon-to-be favorites such as Sean Carroll's arrangement of General Taylor and Kathleen Allan's version of The Sealer's Ball.
The CD is now available at Fred's Records.
