--The Wassailing Song is a secular holiday song dating back to the 12th Century.--It is traditionally sung at Christmas, but actually does not celebrate the nativity, rather the New Year! --The word Wassail is an olde English word for a spiced wine or ale. It was common to go door-to-door toasting to one's Good Health.--Ron Babcock's lively arrangement of about 5 minutes is inspired by Ralph Vaughan Williams and is for intermediate to advanced performers.
