Because a New Zealand Shanty is the obvious choice for a cover with an instrument from the 7th Century...
My replica lyre is based on archaeological finds in England - but we have no surviving music/notation for Anglo Saxon music. So I’m experimenting with what types of music can be played on it.
I love all the versions of this shanty that I’ve heard recently so thought I’d give it a go - I enjoyed it, I hope you do too!
