WORD!!! #9LC

John Rutter! (let the hateres hate, I like Rutter) #9LC

The Vice-Provost has been taking voice lessons from Monty Python. #9lc

And here is this years commissioned piece. It is trying very hard to be unique, but is succeeding only in being jarring. #9lc

My choir regularly sung Sir Christemas. The arguments that ensued over how to pronounce the Norman French were endless. #9lc

And another soloist pulls of a beautiful Wilcocks descant. #9lc

Oh One of my favorite carols "The Angle Gabriel" #9lc

I wish I could get American churches to sing O Little Town of Bethlehem to this tune. #9lc

#Ironic that at the bottom of every left leaf the program says "please turn page quietly" but the script on the Kings College site makes a page turning noise for the digital program. #9lc

Now this is more my preferred style! O Radiant Dawn #9lc

Another 12-tone setting for Jerusalem, Rejoice for Joy. I know that it is en vogue in academic music theory right now, but I’d like some more traditional harmonies. #9lc #crumudgen

Not my favorite setting of Adam Lay yBounden but well done. #9lc

Ok, this boy reading Genesis is doing better than 90% of the adults who read in most churches most Sundays. And he is reading from King James on top of it. #9lc

"And let us hold in our heart all those who, even as we gather here, endure the depredations and travails of war" #9lc

Ok so the Perfect Pitch Brigade are telling me that OIRDC was pitched down a half step. I can't tell. #9LC

And the chorister makes it through the solo of Once in Royal David's City. #9LC

Anyone #onHere live tooting #9LessonsAndCarols (#9lc) this morning?

Merry Christmas, everyone! See you next year. #9LC

@wnknisely Merry Christmas, #episcodons #episcopal and #anglican musicians and the whole #9LC community! Always a wonderful way to usher in Christmas Eve for me.

@ChristaCannon we totally sang it and every verse and it did make us little choristers giggle. #9LC

Okay... time for a quick workout, get cleaned up, lunch and off to the church. Happy and Merry Christmas everyone! #9lc

Here comes the Charles Wesley! #9LC

How does one become a star-led chieftain? Asking for a friend. #9LC

WORD #9LC

I'm sorry, but "Lo! he abhors not the virgin's womb" is just hilarious to me. Definitely never sang *that* verse growing up. 😬

#9LC

the CHORD!! #9LC

@erikgunn oh, it's amazing, the juxtaposition. #9LC

@jblxdesign And the light shineth in darkness;
and the darkness comprehended it not. #9LC

It's my second #9LC. Anyone else listening?

#Festival of Nine #Lessons & #Carols

#Cambridge #KingsCollege

@karanslade so I'm wondering, will there be a live toot (is that how we say it?) on #9LC for this service as there has been on Twitter? Or both here and there, given the migration-in-progress and liminal space we are in this year? I just want to know where to go this year for the party. #Episcopal #Anglican #Lessons&Carols #ChoralMusic #KingsCollege #ChristmasEveTraditions
