04. ghost of the wandering minstrel boy
05. gloucester city
06. starlight
07. caravan

09. time in my life
10. fruit of the musical tree
11. while it lasted
12. suzanne

pete hodge, jem north, dave eaves
poetry spoken by richard todd

sonnet to the fall
the year as a cycle
has now taken its turn
first corner winter
showed its pale face
then hid behind a cloud
second corner spring
promethean flame
ran ignited candled chestnut trees to flower
summer's staff
of thirteen bars
has played
erased
forgotten
fourth corner autumn
heralds the coming winter
and while his golden trumpet blast
looks and leaps to corners deep
three sons of fall
the first to leaf
the next to light
the last will hide
as if in fright
and wait until
his chance is right
to freeze the life
its self to gold
then leaves to cry
so sad
so cold

DULCIMER
