  • Hi,

    Reasonable question. It may depend on the range for the seperate voices (SATB). Try to forget the number of flats & sharps while singing. It all turns out to be do-re-mi (if in major) in principal. Personally I would write all christmas carols in E flat or A flat major, 'cause these key signatures reflect the dark of night and the cold of winter during Christmas. If you raise f.i. E flat by one semitone (thus E) you'll experience a different feeling.........

    Best regards

  • Thank you for this beautiful carol of Rutter that's very English in spirit. Given the very fine choral tradition there the glorious singing here is not unexpected. It brings peace, goodwill and so much light in these benighted times. Merry Christmas everyone! sd goh (malaysia)

  • Thank you and Merry Xmas as well.

  • this song is great!

    but I love everything if it is english :P

  • well when you're on the same level as this choir, ochestral trickyness of E flats isn't really something to worry about;)

    by the way, who is this choir acctually, they don't have a very british sound, but clearly they're not american. sounds european though... or am i completely of?
