@MarkHansonMr No, it's the same carol, this is given a slightly different arrangement. I assume you are referring to "Gabriel's Message" done by Sting on the "A Very Specal Christmas" compilation.
They look like the crowd at an indie rock concert (nothing wrong with that) yet they sing amazingly. Superb arrangement as well. Big up respect to the St Olaf Viking Chorus!
@speaks3703 Viking Chorus performed from a manuscript copy; their director, Dr. Christopher Aspaas, is the writer of the arrangement. You may be able to contact him or the college directly to secure a copy. It may have been published since.
Hi Aaron.... always a treat to watch Viking Choir. By-the-by, we received an invite from St. Olaf to get Christmas Concert tickets because you're a student (even if you're not in a choir...). We should compare schedules and all get tickets for the same day. Later, Dad
Well done, very well done. And I've been studying this carol for 12 years

It would be difficult to find a better conductor, clinician or just straight up nicer person than Dr. Aspaas.

How can a motley crew sing such heavenly music? I guess the same reason angels can appear to shepherds in a field watching their flocks by night.
