Anyone know what 2 christmas songs or hymns can be sung in a round? My sister and I want to do a musical number for our entire extended family, but we both want to sing the soprano part, so we can't split up a song.

Thanks!

I'm sure that many can be split into rounds. Look for the classically composed hymns, which are highly structured and lend themselves to rounds. For some reason,"Good King Wencelas"comes to mind. Then you could come together at some point.

Or you could look for a classic Christmas duet. I say this because I have recently fallen in love with the Bing Crosby/ David Bowie "Little Drummer Boy/Peace on Earth" duet. Of course, there are others. It's probably easier to divide up a song into a duet than a round?
