03 Apr 00 - 12:22 PM (#206067) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Songs sung in rounds. From: Scotsbard Here is a barebones ABC for the version I learned several decades ago from the PP&M records. Sing it in three parts, starting every 2nd measure at the double bars. I see the words posted above, which are sung between the repeats, and the tag line is the same as the first.

From: GUEST,Cynwrig ap Rhys I have a slightly different version of 'Hey Ho', taken from "Rounds and Catches of the Elizabethan and Stuart Age". The source is cited as Ravenscroft, Pammelia #85. Hey Ho No-bo-dy at home meat nor drink nor money have I none fill the pot Ea-die Another interesting round from Ravenscroft was in Deuteromelia #13.

03 Apr 00 - 08:53 PM (#206268) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Songs sung in rounds. From: Mary in Kentucky Here's a link to a midi of Hey Ho! Nobody Home. It's at the bottom of this page. I just didn't think it should be linked to directly. link Also, here are the words to Kookaburra from one of Joe Offer's links. My apologies to the Catters down under for the way it is spelled. I didn't do it! Also, I love Mozart's Alleluia, Exsultate Jubilate as a round, but there are no words. Mary |
03 Apr 00 - 09:07 PM (#206273) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Songs sung in rounds. From: Mary in Kentucky ...my apologies...maybe that is the correct spelling for kookaburra! Also, there are words (or a word) to Mozart's Alleluia. The word is Alleluia, and it's heard a lot at Christmastime. Mary |
03 Apr 00 - 09:26 PM (#206280) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Songs sung in rounds. From: Mary in Kentucky ...thought of another Christmas round. Dona Nobis. The midi and history can be found at Central Valley Christian School. I think the words fit better if sung a little differently than written here. Mary |
03 Apr 00 - 09:46 PM (#206286) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Songs sung in rounds. From: Charcloth a nice old hymn is called "When jesus wept" when Jesus wept a falling tear,In mercy flowed beyond all bounds, When groaned a trimbeling fear siezed all the guilty world around (you gotta forgive the spelling) this song dates back circa The Rev. war |
03 Apr 00 - 09:48 PM (#206287) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Songs sung in rounds. From: Charcloth whoops The 2nd line should say "When jesus groaned..." etc. |
03 Apr 00 - 09:55 PM (#206290) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Songs sung in rounds. From: Mary in Kentucky Charcloth--that's lovely...you can hear it in the DT when you enter @round. Also, that's one that has a midi file in the DT that you can hear the various voices of the round. (Most of them just have the melody line, or in the case of a round, one voice.) Mary |
03 Apr 00 - 10:37 PM (#206307) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Songs sung in rounds. From: GUEST,Pete Peterson "When Jesus Wept" has a known composer-- William Billings who, as you say, was around during trhe Revolutionary war. He wrote the round version of "by the waters of Babylon"-- not the reggae version and boy has THAT gotten me into trouble before I realized that 100 people know the reggae version for every 1 who knows Billings. . . |
03 Apr 00 - 10:41 PM (#206309) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Songs sung in rounds. From: Mbo Ah yes! "Hey Ho Nobody Home" is a Christmas song, believe it or not! If you can get your hands on a copy of "Rise Up Singing", they have a WHOLE section for rounds, including some neat Hebrew ones! --Mbo |
04 Apr 00 - 10:20 AM (#206502) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Songs sung in rounds. From: Crowhugger Mbo, Our choir, Echo, has a really good time with rounds, especially in Hebrew, Yiddish, Spanish (Cultivo una Rosa Blanca) etc. The English language river chants get dull after a while. Sometimes we teach them at the Potluck Singalong fundraisers. CH |

28 Jul 11 - 01:59 PM (#3197392) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Songs sung in rounds. From: Bettynh This site is devoted to rounds. Play the samples for old favorites and new ideas. They'll sell you CDs of nicely done rounds and a book of words and transcriptions. Good resources links, too. |
28 Jul 11 - 05:50 PM (#3197521) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Songs sung in rounds. From: AllisonA(Animaterra) Oh, yes, I know that site, have the book, and even know Sol Weber! But I'm greedy- I want MORE!! |

29 Jul 11 - 08:50 AM (#3197858) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Songs sung in rounds. From: GUEST,Grishka A good friend of mine collects rounds (either old or popular or both). We have not yet been able to find out how to list all the relevant items in the DT; the search word "round" doesn't really do the trick. We may be able to contribute more material. |
29 Jul 11 - 09:38 AM (#3197880) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Songs sung in rounds. From: AllisonA(Animaterra) No, Monique, I'll take them in any language! Grishka, do it! There are several websites with good rounds collections, but most of them have been around for some time and have not been updated. I think it's time for a new collection! (I've been writing a few, but they need tweaking before I go public!) |
29 Jul 11 - 01:04 PM (#3197983) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Songs sung in rounds. From: Bettynh Have you seen this site? It's not Mac-friendly. I can hear the midi files, but can't download music or lyrics. |
