Good job, but why the transposition a fourth down? Either sing the piece in the original key or not at all.

@odnoforpb If every singer were required to sing all pieces in the original key, it would disqualify many singers,- some of them great vocalists - from singing pieces they could otherwise deliver beautifully but for the lack of possession of a note or semitone at the top or bottom. Personally, I would far rather hear them sing it than be too precious about expecting them to over stretch themselves. Singing shouldn't be an exercise in athleticism.
