The scores labeled SATB 1 and SATB 2 in different keys, but otherwise identical. The harmonies she sings are adapted from the SATB score. Obviously you’ll need two voices for a live presentation. Heather’s demo for this song is of the “don’t try this at home” variety–or rather, don’t try this alone. At a quick tempo, with a flute intro and obbligato for the last verse, it passed the “fun” test: my husband whistled it for a week. So I played around with it, and found that it readily fell into 6/8 meter. As Marianne Dashwood so aptly put it, “…there is a something wanting.” It has great words (in what other song do you get to sing “seraph” and “forthwith” in the same line?) and the melody suits the lyrics well, but… ho hum.
One Christmas as our congregation sang “While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks by Night,” I wondered why this long-familiar carol had never been one of my favorites.
