Dec. 22nd, 2008 07:11 pmO my friendslist, I appeal to you! Particularly those of you who might have knowledge of period street songs from the 1660s, or who might know someone who does. (That's right, filkers, I'm looking at you.)
A friend of mine is involved in the production of a play that has a handful of these songs, and needs tunes for them: ideally the actual authentic period music, but period-sounding music that was composed more recently will do in a pinch. A further note: these are plague songs. Expect them to be accordingly, er, cheerful. (Hi,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Lyrics behind the ( cut-tag. (*mutters* Okay, NOW they're behind the cut-tag.) )
Once again: if you know a tune to any of these, or know somebody who might, please comment here! And feel free to boost the signal by linking here if you know any other good places to ask.
Thanks for listening!
ETA: As of this afternoon it looks like a source has been acquired. Thanks again to everybody who volunteered help!
