Carols, eh? Oh man... Well, I performed several in a choir concert yesterday! *G*
Favourite... hmm. Favourite is hard. The Coventry Carol, which I sang as a duet with my minister and soprano friend Jane at the aforementioned concert, and Berlioz's Shepherds' Farewell is definitely up there, along with Peter Warlock's Bethlehem Down... I Wonder as I Wander and Noel Nouvelet are both gorgeous... and We Three Kings of Orient Are is a childhood favourite. So I have a few. I just love singing them, some of the melodies are so beautiful, whether or not I believe the words. And of course there is Midnight Clear which is a rare example of a carol that was actually written by a Unitarian. *g* Want any of these? Gabriel's Message is fun to sing, too; I sang that together with a friend as an alto-tenor duet at a holiday party last year.
