The Accompanist - Musical Theatre Piano Karaoke | IN THE BLEAK MIDWINTER Christmas Carol (Holst) Piano Accompaniment in Eb [Karaoke Lyrics Onscreen] @TheAccompanist | Uploaded December 2022 | Updated October 2024, 11 hours ago.
IN THE BLEAK MIDWINTER (Christmas Carol - Cranham Tune - Holst).
Piano Accompaniment in Eb Major.
Karaoke Lyrics Onscreen (or turn on CC/Subtitles).
Sheet Music for this arrangement is now available at musicnotes.com/l/lfRhS
A Christmas Song / Carol by Christina Georgina Rossetti and Gustav Holst.
A Piano Accompaniment of the classic Christmas hymn In The Bleak Midwinter. I have done this is Eb Major which is slightly lower than the 'usual' as I thought this may work better for more people and be a little more comfortable for Mezzo and Alto than in the usual F Major.
This version has all 5 verses.
Lyrics :
In the bleak midwinter
Frosty wind made moan,
Earth stood hard as iron,
Water like a stone:
Snow had fallen, snow on snow,
Snow on snow,
In the bleak midwinter,
Long ago.
Our God, Heav'n cannot hold him,
Nor earth sustain;
Heav'n and Earth shall flee away
When he comes to reign:
In the bleak midwinter
A stableplace sufficed
The Lord God Almighty,
Jesus Christ.
Enough for him whom cherubim
Worship night and day,
A breastful of milk
and a mangerful of hay:
Enough for him whom angels
Fall down before,
The ox and ass and camel
Which adore.
Angels and archangels
May have gathered there,
Cherubim and seraphim
Thronged the air,
But only his mother,
In her maiden bliss,
Worshiped the Beloved
With a kiss.
What can I give him,
Poor as I am?
If I were a shepherd,
I would bring a lamb,
If I were a wise man
I would do my part,
Yet what I can I give him,
Give my heart.

The Accompanist has created a collection of Piano Accompaniments of Musical Theatre and Popular music songs.
These Broadway and West End accompaniments have been specifically performed to match the tempos of the original (cast) recordings where possible. These karaoke style tracks have been created to give the audition performer the sound of what is likely within an audition environment where often we are not faced with a full orchestra but simply a pianist. Therefore the songs can sound very different to the fully orchestrated version.
The tracks are designed to be used either in performance or as practice for auditions. You are more than welcome to use the track to create your own YouTube cover of the song. If you could put a link back to this video in your description that would be amazing of you. I'm creating a playlist on my channel page of covers using The Accompanist's tracks so let me know if you do a cover using it and I'll add it to this channel's covers playlist.
