[Geysers] Geyser Carols 2010

[caros at xmission.com]

I feel like an idiot (no comments from the peanut gallery please) but  
I trashed and now can't find the email that included the link to  
Straight No Chaser http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Fe11OlMiz8

Thank you thank you whoever you were. I thought I would split my  
sides. Have done a lot of choral singing (including the Boar's Head  
Carol which you hear about a measure of if you listen closely and  
would probably only recognize if you knew early music). What this  
score looked like --- the mind boggles at the complexity, and IT ALL  
MAKES MUSICAL SENSE. If you haven't listened and need a good laugh, do  
not pass go, do not collect $200.
