I like The First Nowell. It's a lovely song. I'm very surprised that they managed to deviate from tradition that much.
oh yeah, they sang that four years ago It wasn't even four years, was it? Because we did it with chorus in 10th grade, I think, and that would be three years. Or am I just making that up?
they pronounced some of the words differently than we did But they made us work so hard on pronouncing it correctly! And what was the point if they were just going to wipe out our legacy with some new group.
I just had a scary thought. What if the tradition is even deeper than we know? What if the songs they sing at that concert are on a three or four year cycle, and they didn't mention that they'd done it before because they'd done it before when we were there, and the year before that? Because that would be a little bit creepy.
Is it just me, or are the freshmen tinier than they have ever been? I must admit that I didn't really pay that much attention to the freshmen. When they were singing, I just enjoyed the music, and the rest of the time they blended in with the middle school (because, after all, they really are just middle schoolers who happen to be a year older). The middle schoolers did seem very young - particularly the middle school orchestra.
