Description
My first song and playing on the Anglo-Saxon Lyre.
My arrangement of this beautiful old Nordic song titled Drømde mik en drøm i nat (I dreamt me a dream)
It is said that is the oldest known secular song in the Nordic countries, written around 1300. It is written in Old Danish and is included in Codex Runicus, a transcript of Scanian Law where it forms a final note. Like the law itself, it is written in Runes.
Played and arranged by Vicente La Camera on a Copy of the Trossingen Lyre made by Jamesh lyres UK.
