I can edit a bit too! XD I probably don't have fiddlerman's ear, but I do have audacity!

I want to play God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen because aolian mode is awesome. From this list I'd choose What Child is This (aka Greensleeves).
I don''t really like 20th century carols, unless of course they''re by Benjamin Britten.

carol of the bells is my first choice and I can't play any of them yet, at least I haven't tried any of them yet.

Here is the order so far. Carol of the Bells has two votes and the next 4 have one vote each. Don't worry about knowing how to play the pieces because I'll post the parts and you'll have time to learn them. Please only vote once since I may not take the time to double check.

My first choice is "What Child is This.
It sounds like fun, may need help getting a video to you but we will cross that bridge when the time comes.

Great thanks, NEW ORDER. Carol and What Child tied for first.

I didn't see anyone mention 'So this is Christmas', but I don't really know the name of the song. 
If you think you can, or you think you can't, you're probably right.

Ok, it's actually called 'War is over' ... I knew I had it wrong.
The other one is a Cliff Richard song I haven't heard in years:
'Mistletoe and wine'
Nice tune.
If you think you can, or you think you can't, you're probably right.

I absolutely have to vote for "What child is this". It's the Greensleeves melody, and Greensleeves is a piece I quickly want to learn each time I set out to learn a new instrument.

Is there a quick explanation for what a "click track" is ?
I am set to be impressed if the 4 parts will sync AND be in tune but I am willing to learn something. Good use for a metronome(?)
PS I do not plan to participate thus allowing max opportunity for younger eager members. I have had more than my share of Xmas Programs

Oliver, I would be real happy if you did. My plans are to show lots of players and even if you are just there for a few seconds I would love to use you. It's of course up to you but the more the merrier.

First of all…I'm back 😉 My summer vacation to my brothers place in Florida got canceled because I was asked to fill in for a band playing lead guitar. It was fun and sure needed the money with all the problems going on in this world today. And on that note, I'm in!
I would suggest, "The War is Over" by John Lennon. I think it would be very meaningful to a lot of people and heck, a bunch of beginner fiddlers can't sound any worse than Yoko's singing parts in that song. Plus if we did that song it would get very popular on Youtube quick.
Otherwise: Silent Night then
