uh......I was suppose to take notes? While they were singing??? lol

Actually I have been thinking about this since coming back and listening. I am not sure if Orlagh or Chloe got longer parts or not. Part of me wants to say yes, but not sure. I do know that Lisa and Meav sang their parts.

Just have to wait for the DVD.

I can see why you were confused there Mel.  Orla and Chloe did get bigger solos when they did that song on the DVD. Well, Orla did.  Chloe didn't leaving her the only one without a solo on that song.  Also you know how you said that Lisa and Meav sang their parts, Meav didn't sing all of her parts because the part Orla sung, Meav sang it previously.  Lisa did sing all of her parts though.  Just wrapping up the topic basically.

Hi Jonas,Believe it or not,this is the first time I've seen his post.Sorry to say,times have been very demanding for this old retiree.But now that I've read it let me try to answer your requests briefly.Orla does not have many solos when singing with the group because her voice has such a beautiful,haunting quality that it makes for a wonderful 2nd alto part in their harmonies.  There would be NO magnificent harmonies if it were not for Orla's superb voice.She is an absolute necessity for the group parts,which may be one reason why her solos are so very special.At the Christmas Celebration no one was more alive or more joyful singing praises to the Lord than our Orla! May she continue to be such a blessing to you and to all of us. Mc

All
Chloe
Orla

Meav
Choir

Christmas pipes, Christmas pipes
Calling us home on Christmas night
Call us from far, call us from near
Oh play me your Christmas pipes


Christmas bells, Christmas bells
Over the hills and over the dells

Ringing out bright, ringing out clear
Oh ring me your Christmas bells


Christmas strings, Christmas strings
Playing the peace that Christmas brings

Fiddle and bow, gentle and low
Oh play me your Christmas strings



Christmas pipes, Christmas pipes
Calling us home on Christmas night
Call us from far, call us from near
Oh play me your Christmas pipes


O holy night the stars are brightly
shining it is the night....


Christmas choir, Christmas choir
Christmas carols ’round Christmas fire
Holy night, angels on high
Round up your Christmas choir


Christmas band, Christmas band
You’re waiting for me with your Christmas band

Cymbal and drum, rattle and hum
March out your Christmas band


Christmas pipes, Christmas pipes
Calling us home on Christmas night
Call us from far, call us from near
Oh play me your Christmas pipes


Christmas pipes, Christmas pipes
Calling us home on Christmas night
Call us from far, call us from near
Oh play me your Christmas pipes


Good to be home
Good to be home to -  lisa & meav
Good to be home to your Christmas pipes

thank you for pointing that out. while i feel that orla doesn't have the same versitility as the other ladies in voice, she has a specialised voice that harmonises perfectly with the others

On the DVD, Chloes does not have a solo part. On the cd Chloe sings the line "playing the peace Christmas brings".

I believe that Meav and Orla sung "Gentle and Low" on both the CD and the DVD.
