The melody wasn't my invention, only the Jovian lyrics, so I guess
I shouldn't be counted amongst the ranks of composers after all.  =P
(Pretty much the only MIDI track I've ever written myself is a would-be
TV theme than oozes unprofessionality from every pore. ;-)

My Jovian carol has changed its address slightly since I've moved my
site to a domain of my own.  Here it is now:

Listen at your own risk.  ;-)

PS:  I'd like to write some lyrics for "Es ist ein Ros' entsprungen",
which I consider among the most beautiful melodies, but I fear I would
lack the vocal bandwidth to sing all four voices, even if I octavise
them.  =P
