I really like the drums, they add a really cool touch. And the song is very well sung. I'm singing this in my choir right now as well.
But it is a very easy song to memorize. It's very repetitive with the melody, and in my opinion it takes away from the performance if the singers are holding up binders.

Very nice, though the pronunciation of the Old English/Late Saxon is rather off. For example, bounden is pronounced as "Beun-dyn", and as for "we mun singen", it's "Muin". Winter is also as "Wintah". I studied the later Saxon/Frisian languages for a long time, so I try to use it to help where I can. A friendly tip for the singers, is all. Really nice performance, by the way!
