Today we are singing "Angels We Have Heard on High." This is my favorite Christmas carol to sing. Not necessarily my favorite to listen to, but it is hand-down the best one to sing. And that favor probably comes from the fact that I sing alto and this song has a very fun alto descant during the "gloria" part. It's just beautiful and nice to be out from under the soprano's shadow every now and then. If I could sing Handel's Hallelujah Chorus more often, I would, for the same reason. Oh, and more - Handel's Messiah is just stunning. But I digress.
See what a lovely little question and answer session the sopranos and altos are having? Fun to sing, and I can imagine being in an angel chorus. Almost.
