Hello Hans

Greetings from fluffy white snow-covered Anchorage, to all our long suffering and ever so patient mailing list members:-

Finally, at long last -- Not quite in time for Christmas/Chanukah/Solstice, (sorry, we tried!) but better late than never, the new CD collection of Menolly's music of Pern is on its way to the duplication plant --

It's now available for pre-order and will ship the moment we have copies:

SUNSET'S GOLD
Music from Anne McCaffrey's Harperhall novels, composed, arranged and performed by Tania Opland and Mike Freeman.

Song for Petiron
Sweet Sea (My Nightly Craft)
Gatheritza - a Nerat gather dance tune
Gather Day/The Harper's Glass
The Little Queen (Menolly's Firelizard Song)
Sunset's Gold (The Blackest Night / A Harper's Lament)
Equinox
Brekke's Cry
Run! (Menolly's Running Song)
Ghulees
Hatching Day
Four Hundred Turns - a previously unpublished Anne McCaffrey ballad

Featuring Guest musicians:
Philip Boulding (folk harp and valiha)
Harper Tasche (folk harp and bray harp)
Madeleine Doherty (concert harp)
Felicia Dale (hurdy-gurdy)
with additional vocals from:
Alicia Healey, Joe Prater, Toni Wood, Emily Groff, Felicia Dale and William Pint.

We expect to have the first shipment of this long awaited and exciting album available to mail out by the end of the year (THIS one!) and we hope to start shipping pre ordered copies by Dec 31.

To be among the first to receive yours, please follow the link from our home page at www.opland-freeman.com. You can order online or download a mail order form.

This CD is not yet available at any of our usual outlets, so for the time being our online store is the only place to get it.

Please pass this on to anyone you think might be interested :-)
Tania & Mike

So.. I AM passing this to all that are interested!

Here's the link you need: www.opland-freeman.com

And YAY, they told me long ago they had asked and got permission to use Elizabeth Malczynski's wonderful artwork for the cover! An Extra Bonus!

NB: I was so eager that I didn't look around the board if somebody already posted about this! And lo and behold, Cavatica did, in the DRoP forum! Ah well, they can use all the atention they can get

Cavatica · Dec 11 2008, 02:52 PM

Trying to steal my thunder, Hans?

***Hans*** · Dec 11 2008, 03:09 PM

LOL, no Cat, certainly not. Sorry! I just came home, read the mail and posted. had you posted in the Café I would have noticed but as you put it in DRoP forum I did not

I'll let it stand and add a note!

***Anneli*** · Dec 11 2008, 04:35 PM

*mutters*

The pair of you beat me to it

Still, at least I heard one of the tracks live a couple of years ago

Kater · Dec 11 2008, 04:45 PM

*Jumping up and down* I can't WAIT!!!!!!

YAY!!!!!!

Ryuu · Dec 11 2008, 06:11 PM

I saw Cav's notice over at AMcCF.

My order's in!

Sandi · Dec 11 2008, 06:57 PM

Sounds wonderful!

Bob12 · Dec 11 2008, 07:47 PM

Ordered! Thanks for the tip.

jube · Dec 12 2008, 12:11 AM

Will be doing so over the weekend. Thanks for the notice

granath · Dec 13 2008, 04:40 AM

Great news! I'll have to order as well...

kc · Dec 13 2008, 05:15 AM

Thanks to both Hans and Cavatica.

I got the email from Tania myself but being at w**k I couldn't post on any Forum's only read.

I ordered my copies straight away and it was my intention to post the news when I got home - then I noticed Cav's posts on both sites.

Can't wait for my New Year gift to myself.

thank you for posting it. Rats I've to place my order after the holidays money is a little short right now.

Lady Maelin · Dec 14 2008, 12:06 AM

This is fantastic news...my order is off as well. This is the best news I have heard in a while. What a lovely Christmas present from Mike and Tania, to their fans.

Well, as the CDs wont be delivered until new year but be paid in advance it is rather a lovely Christmas present to Mike and Tania, from their fans.

I ordered early too and don't really complain!

Becky · Dec 16 2008, 10:11 AM

Thanks for the heads up!!! Can't wait to get my copy!

StevenB · Dec 16 2008, 12:10 PM

Thanks for posting this Hans and Cavatica. You both beat me to it as well.

I've sent off my order...

StevenB · Dec 17 2008, 04:33 AM

I forgot to say, Mike told me a story about track 3 on this new CD. He wrote the words to this track as, "It's a gather. It's a" but everyone who sang it kept saying , "It's a gatheritza" and started referring to it as the "gatheritza" song. It looks like that's become the official title.

It will be interesting to see what it says on the CD sleeve.

I'm looking forward to getting a copy.

Hmmm. Actually, that's Anne's lyric, "Gather, Gather, it's a Gather day ..."

I was an English English teacher, and I talk proper English English, not like wot you lot mostly does. So, when Tania started singing "Gather, Gatheritsa Gather day" I brow beat her into submission until she sang the words seperately so as not to sound sloppy - 'cos with that much deliberate repitition it would have been very wearing! She did that beautifully, but then I had to train and kick everyone else who came into the studio to sing on that track to do the same and it drove me mad for weeks. I even had to digitally edit one or two "Gatheritsas" from final takes before the mixing was done, and then I couldn't listen to the thing for days! So .. when we were looking for a title for that nice dance tune ...

StevenB · Feb 21 2009, 07:30 AM

Mike, sorry I didn't quite remember the story correctly until I played the Sunset's Gold CD. Elizabeth and I were both amused to see what you had called the dance tune. It makes a great title, and will bring a smile to those "in the know".

***Hans*** · Feb 21 2009, 08:40 AM

I completely agree with you, Steven

mawra · Feb 21 2009, 10:23 PM

Kibby will want this CD. The Harper Hall are her fav. Pern books.

***Anneli*** · Mar 1 2009, 04:53 PM

*chuckles*

P'ter · Mar 3 2009, 01:53 PM

Some cell at the back of my brain keeps insisting that the lyric goes "Gather, Ista gather ...."

That's all well and good, but have you actually received and HEARD your "copy mailed to your real address last week" yet?

P'ter · Mar 4 2009, 04:49 PM

Yes: I e-mailed Tanya.

Mike Freeman · Mar 5 2009, 04:42 AM

P'ter · Mar 5 2009, 05:34 AM

I'll forgive you.

Lanen · Mar 5 2009, 12:51 PM

I dunno, P'ter, I wouldn't just forgive him like that.

He's now an American, you know.

Can't trust him like you could when he was from Manchester!

Besides, Mike, of course Tania doesn't tell you everything. Every woman needs to retain an air of mystery.

P'ter · Mar 5 2009, 02:57 PM

A Londoner forgive a Mancunian? Wash your mouth out Yank.

And what's this about an 'air of mystery'? I thought it was her BO basher.

Ha. Actually, I ain't no Murcin yet. The USCIS still hasn't got its act sufficiently together to schedule an oaf swearing appointment I can actually get to, so I'm still awaiting the final accolade of US citizenship.
Since I leave for Ireland in a week, I'll still be an untainted Englishman until at least August. Sigh.

As for "air of mystery" - I'm off to write the tune ..

Oh... if it's done, please share!

P'ter · Mar 31 2009, 10:26 AM

An 'Air of Mystery'? I do hope it's 'tonus peregrinus'.

Lanen · Mar 31 2009, 10:42 AM

Mike, when are you two going to be in Ireland?! We're there from Friday to Tuesday!

and anyway, if the US whatever is trying to get you into an oath swearing contest - they haven't met many Mancunians, have they?

As for your new tune - I can help you with the refrain - "wouldn't you like to know?"

P'ter · Mar 31 2009, 10:57 AM

"... Whatever it is, and so;
Where ever it is
That's where it is
You'll just have to get up and go."

So Mike.....did you really mean 'oaf' instead of 'oath'?

Regardless, it's just too funny!

StevenB · Apr 8 2009, 10:01 AM

Lanen and I just missed Mike by a matter of hours...

jube · Apr 8 2009, 10:13 AM

That's a bit of shame really because it would have been a good time, had by all.
