Choral spoof on the 12 days of Christmas - the choir has its own ideas and wrecks the procession in various ways while the soloist gets it all wrong.
Words and music by David W Solomons.
The scores are available for men's voices (12daysATBarB.pdf) and for mixed choir (12daysSATB.pdf).
The zip file also includes midi files of each version in case they are of use for rehearsals
The sound sample is a performance by the composer multitracking (dwschorale).
A cartoon realisation can be seen on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JOIADJNLCeU
The words (taking the last verse) are
...on the twelfth day of Christmas the choir processed in song
and twelve candles dripped
eleven altos flipped
and ten lines were clipped
and nine gins were sipped
and eight crept to the crypt
and seven hymn books slipped
and six basses quipped
and five sang in tune!
and four cassocks ripped
and three lost their script
and two tenors tripped
and the soloist got it all wrong.
