@Fiddlerman -
From the day you posted the score, I did my usual and (re-)transcribed it into NWC and exported as midi files - (oh, and anyone who wants them is welcome to - just ask ) I set the tempo to 120, it's "brisk" but not too fast - "jaunty" I would call it. The 76 you suggest may be a bit more in keeping with the occasion however!
I dunno.... I have no preference personally - hey - I'll post a 120 play of my v1 against the 3 other parts as a played-back midi - see what it sounds like ??? - LOL - I'm getting good at this mixing - here you go - this is a bit of v1 against your own arrangement for v2/3/4/ (incidentally these parts are mapped on midi to violin, violin, oboe - not that that would be particularly noticeable...) .. anyway - this is how your arrangement works at 120 bpm - I quite like it.... (your arrangement that is, I wan't referring to my playing)
... I like the 120 - I've "reset my timings" to 76 - to try it out - and - well - like I say - it's a bit more "solemn" and "respectful" - I mean Xmas isn't all about fun and hilarity...
Anyway - just a bit of early feedback...
Cheers, Bill
EDIT: Ohhh - if the FM Concert sounds "unusual" - that's because it is played with a mute..... haaaa.... I felt it needed it because of my bowing problems (damaged right hand pinkie, still no better, bow ends up being "heavier and less controllable" on the strings - I'll find a way around this yet .. grrrr )
I seriously recommend not copying my mistakes. D'oh -
Please make your own, different mistakes, and help us all learn :-)

@Fiddlerman - yup - the reference to the 76bpm appears in the blog entry -

.. as you say - probably a "hang-over" from your Thaxted blog....

Welcome, Lucy - you'll find PDF sheet here - Visit https://fiddlerman.com/2014/11.....christmas/ .... it's all there, including two versions (if you feel happy about shifting for the second part )
Enjoy the forum !

EDIT: : Oops.... I think the original link I gave comes back to here - I'll sort it... give me a minute - ok the link above is correct now.... which reminds me of a dictionary definition -
Recursive: See recursive
