''An Evening of Carols and Capers'' is an album by Maddy Prior with The Carnival Band. This double album is effectively an audio version of the DVD of the same name, though the tracks vary slightly. It is a collection of live recordings from concerts in Oxford and Salisbury. The dates are not given. The songs originated from the studio albums ''Carols and Capers'', ''Gold, Frankincense & Myrrh'' and ''A Tapestry of Carols''. To break up the proceedings there are some instrumentals. The "Tinker Polka" derives from a vintage 1930 recording of a Texas Czech band. The song "Balthazar" has an African rhythm, and "Melima" sounds Arabic. "M Charpentier's Christmas Stomp" (CD1) is the same as "M Charpentier's Christmas Swing" (CD2) except that the latter is jazzy. Running time CD1: 37m 57s. CD2: 41m 14s. The package is dated 2005 but it wasn't released until December 2006. The liner notes contain the words to all the songs. ==Track listing== CD 1 # Masters in this Hall (Words: William Morris; Music: French Traditional) # The Sans Day Carol (Cornish Traditional) # God Rest You Merry Gentlemen (Traditional) # This Endris Night (Anon 16th century) # M Charpentier's Christmas Stomp (instrumental) (1.
