It’s Christmas Eve, and I look back to the times some years ago when I was among the local carolers going from door to door the night before Christmas, sometimes with a member or two of the BSO providing extra accompaniment.
It’s a wonderful tradition, and when I was writing songs for the Broadway version of “The Wind in the Willows” (libretto by Jane Iredale), we included a first-act-closing number based on the poem “Joy Shall Be Yours in the Morning.”
Here it is now, dedicated to carolers the world over.
