Tradsinger Lyr Req: Christ came to Christmas/Of Christ Cometh (6) RE: Lyr Req: Carol 'Christ came to Christmas' 13 Nov 11


Hello Mick,

That is very useful and obviously the basis for Mr Gill's version. The tune is in the Sharp MSS at the Vaughan Williams Memorial Library. It's folio FT2762. I haven't transcribed the tune, but it looks like quite a jolly 6/8. Thank you very much for finding this for me. It may be the only version from oral tradition.

Cheers

Tradsinger
