Winter Greens: Carols for the Season

by Betsy Tinney

supported by

cecilia_eng This is holiday music I can listen to rather than the overplayed pop music in retail stores or the elevator music in the fast food industry! Instrumental music is SO much better, and still puts one in the mood for the holidays. THANK YOU BETSY!

stag_the_bard So enchanting, can't help but share with friends and family alike! *****

Shanta Kaneshiro This is a beautiful combination of my favorite things: Carols and cellos.

vwt4abl Beautiful, dark foreboding to joyous light, played flawlessly. Beautiful. Favorite track: Veni Emmanuel.

about

Original instrumental arrangements of (mostly) ancient carols, with cello, acoustic guitar, bodhran and a few other instruments.

This album would not exist without the support of my wonderful subscribers on Patreon and Bandcamp. Thank you all so much! <3

Cover image description: A soft green-grey evergreen wreath against a white background. The intertwined branches of the wreath radiate from the bottom center of the frame, reaching outward and upward. They almost form a circle, but don’t quite meet at the top. In among the pine boughs are a few bare branches (or, perhaps, antlers; the shape could be either). In the center are the words “Winter Greens: Carols for the Season” and “Betsy Tinney, cello”.
