This CD was released to celebrate the centenary of the meeting between Cecil Sharp, the Headington Quarry Morris dancers and their musician William Kimber on Boxing Day 1899. It contains archival recordings of William Kimber playing the anglo-concertina, his singing and his reminiscences - many of the recordings have not been made available before. The CD also illustrates William Kimber's continuing legacy with recordings of current Headington Quarry Morris musician, John Graham, and of England's best-loved free-reed instrumentalist, John Kirkpatrick. The CD is enhanced, which means that you can access film clips, over 45 photographs and an inter-active picture of the 1899 scene through your personal computer. The CD comes complete with a 64-page booklet edited by Derek Schofield detailing Kimber's life, musicianship and influence.
