This has got to be my favorite Christmas song. Yes, it is outrageously difficult and no one understands the words but it's the words that make it powerful. Kudos to this ensemble!

The St. Georges Singers in Belfast, Northern Ireland will be singing this S.A.T.B. version at Christmas 2010. I love your version, the voices blend so well.

I've never heard it with men in it before, usually young boys sing it, or sometimes girls. I know Britten authorised this arrangement, and it's really well done, but still sounds a bit strange to me.

i performed this song about a year ago and still love it
i love this! i'm singing it at christmas, i'm so terrified when it goes into three part canon, i'm a second sop and tend to get lost and start singing 1st sop, it sounds beautiful though, where are you based i would love to hear some more of your music.
