In Dulci Jubilo: Christmas playalong! | Team Recorder

- Learn this festive classic 'In Dulci Jubilo' by following the notes on the screen! Then play along with me until you've nailed it :)
This is the first time I teach a tune on UA-cam in this way, and I'm curious to hear what you think! Even for advanced players, it can be great to train learning by ear or memorisation, or use it as an opportunity to throw some folky ornaments in there. Enjoy!
//// INSTRUMENTS
In this video I play on a 442 boxwood soprano by Mollenhauer and a 440 maple Rafi tenor by Francesco Li Virghi.

You have done more for the recorder than anyone else out there ' past and present'.
Great fun! Brought back hilarious memories of dueting with a cassette recorder (!) when I was 12 or so. Can't imagine what the neighbors thought when I played on the front porch... I've known the tune as a Christmas carol my entire life, but instrumentally, it's just a fantastic, joyous tune that's wonderful this time of year.
I've always loved the Mike Oldfield/Les Penning jiglike version, which I learned to play by ear 40 years ago, more or less.
This is one of my favorite videos! I've played by ear for years,usually out of necessity, trying to learn notes properly, but love how you did this song, hoping for more. :) thank you sarah.
Christmas is over now, but this song is so much fun, and even though I've only just started on the recorder, I can actually play it! And I just learned two new notes (F# and the 'pinched' high E)! Thank you for this!
This was fun! I always play by ear, I can't read music, but I can now basically play anything I can sing. Joined in on my tenor! Thank you! Happy Christmas Sarah, love your channel!
Bravissima Sarah!!!
ayy I watch you both XD
I wan't to you plsss fabio
Sarah, I think Les Penning played the recorder on Mike Oldfields' version of In Dulci Jubilo. Thank you for your wonderful videos, they are very inspirational.
I LOVED IT. Please make more videos like this one. It is so much fun 😊😊😊
Loved the video
I'm a guitar player and this is like TABS!!! FANTASTIC.
7:42 Mike Oldfield is also my favourite musician! You have great taste ;)
Great selection Sarah! "In Dulci Jubilo" ("In Sweet Rejoicing") is also to the 1853 English version of "Good Christian Men Rejoice" by John Mason Neale. Because of it's 14th century melody, this arrangement really complements the vagaries of the venerable recorder and its medieval roots. Another festive tune on the recorder for the holidays is, among many, the English traditional carol: "God Rest You Merry Gentlemen." Congratulations on your second anniversary of "Team Recorder," and happy holidays to you and yours! 😊 ♫ 🎄❄
Nice video :) I do like playing folk and celtic songs with my recorder ! so yes, go on like this, I would enjoy discover new ones and learn some tricks for those music styles :D
Loved this!! Would def enjoy more play-alongs like this. I joined in on alto :)
Thanks. Can't wait to try this. Great idea.
You are such a sweetie. Thank you for these!
Hi , this is Wylie from Hong Kong, i like your channel, i just discover your channel last night , and i spend 3hr today to watch it. i really like you. In HK, the recorder is not the most popular instrument for long term studying, so the learning material is quite little in the music shop. So, it is very enjoy to watch your video and make me feel the recorder is great than i imagine. i start to lean the Alto recorder half year, i will continuous learn skill from you. Thank you.
Ah, nice to hear Wylie! Glad that you are enjoying :)
J’adore ! Merci beaucoup

Loved it!
As a rank beginner, I'd like it better if I could see the fingering without any movement.
That was so cool! Well done. Just got my Moeck Rottenburg alto, soprano, and sopranino recorders. Discovering your channel has inspired me to take on learning the recorder. Love your upbeat style. Your videos always make me smile.
This is so lovely!
I think the teaching method is good especially for the short songs like this because the entire thing can be memorized quickly. I can't wait to get home and try it .
Funny and useful!
Sarah, I was thinking of adding Italian subtitles on some of your older videos, especially tutorials, over time. Let me know which ones in particular you'd like me to translate. :)
In *dulci iubilo*/ nun singet und seid froh!/ Euers Herzens Wonne/ leit *in prasepio*/ und leuchtet als die Sonne/ *matris in gremio*./*Alpha es et O*.
O Iesu parvule*,/ nach dir ist mir so weh!/ Tröst mir mein Gemüte/.*o puer optime*/ durch alle deine Güte/ .*o princeps gloriae*,/ .*trahe me post te!*
*Ubi sunt gaudia?*/ Nirgend mehr denn da,/ da die Engel singen/ *nova cantica*/ und die Schellen klingen/ *in regis curia*./ Eia, wär'n wir da!
(The song is mixed Early Modern German and Latin. I wrote the Latin in between *.)
Translation:
With delicate joy/ now sing and be merry!/ Your heart's delight/ lies in a manger/ and shines like the sun/ in the lap of his mother. /You're Alpha and Omega. (=beginning and end)
O little Jesus/ my heart longs so much for you!/ Comfort my mind,/ o best boy,/ through all your kindness,/ o prince of glory./ Draw me after you(?)!
Where are the joys?/ No place than there,/ where the angels sing/ new songs/ and the bells sound/ at the court of the king./ Ay, if we'd be there!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE Could you try playing two sopranos at the same time, and singing as well to create three-part harmony? It's loads of fun!
Also I LOVE LOVE LOVE your channel. You inspired me to pick up recorder and now I'm starting a brand new Early Music Society at my university, all through you bringing me to the recorder! I'm so happy it's two years old and I can't wait to see the next twenty years of Team Recorder!!!
oh I thought this one were from Mike Oldfield 🤣
This was played very well. I'm not really recorder player at all (nor is it my forte), but it was actually pleasing to hear it.
Thanks for posting this -- it's a great little tune for Christmas! I do have one suggestion however for beginning _alto_ players:
If you try to play this on the alto as it is presented, you'll have to play one octave up due to the low E that appears in the piece. On an F alto, that's unplayable. Of course it's playable at the same pitch as the soprano (one octave higher), but almost all the notes will then need to be played in the upper register. A much easier way to play it as a solo alto piece is to *transpose it up a fourth* (5 semitones) into the key of C, rather than G. That way, almost all the notes fall into the lower register of your alto (ranging from low A to A), and there are NO sharps or flats! This makes it really easy to play, and since it will sound a fifth lower than the version in G, it also sounds better, I think.
Always Rocking that Recorder! Love it!
Thank you Sarah,it's lot of fun playing along with you,and the fact that I know the tune makes it "easier ". Not used to playing that fast and it's going to take many times to get it without missing notes, but fun! Thanks again Sarah. 😊
New Year's Eve in bed with the flu. Needed cheering up and I found this vid - yay! Actually played along, printed the Praetorius and then played along on my new tenor! Cheered me up. Thanks Sarah, from Washington State.
Please, please, please do more like this! It gives a whole new dimension to learning and playing. Sarah, you're the best!
There are channels doing it similar way for anime songs and such, but most are either just sound which I suspect is just midi, or players, but who are not always very good. While I cannot complain about them, they do it great and the more melodies covered the better, it is good to have this with your level of skill ^_^
But for me, as a complete noob, having picked up the recorder last week, and never playing anything before it is quite challenging to play this way 😅 I have big difficulties with rhythm, and figuring it out by ear is very difficult 😅 If you could drop the sheet music after all it would be much appreciated. Though if you don't it is still fine, I have to learn to play like this eventually, and I am just at the very beginning of my path xD
sarah please make a review of the yamaha yrf-21 the recorder fife pleeeease pleeeease!!
Master
First like
I like the new background.
LIGHTS EVERYWHERE
Wow, thanks so much for doing a play along. I have an older Venus german wooden soprano and unfortunately it plays flat. If you ever do any pieces from The Messiah, I would love to hear that a well.
Would be nice to just have the background music, for playing only your self? Something you can put out?
I actually learned this one a few years ago by listening to the Mike Oldfield version. I played it on the alto though
The links to the arrangements won't work if you click on them because the hyperlinks are missing the back parenthesis ). Just add that to the end of the link and it will take you to the page, or use these below.

+bachman8 Hmmm weird the links are complete on my computer! Will double check...
Thank you Sarah for all your amazing generous vids this year. Have a great Christmas - u deserve it.
Hi Sarah, you always play Doen Daphne as a 'tester' for recorders. Is there anyway you could run a session on how to play the entire thing? I would love to her you play it all the way through as it always stops too soon ... boo hoo hoo ... that's my attempt at written crying ha ha ha :-) x
Good
Sarah, can you recommend a sheet music collection of Christmas duets for alto recorders?
How about a film on quarter tones on the recorder?
I am rabidly writing down the notes as I watch😅
Love this video; please do more in this style. Sarah, I am returning to the recorder after decades++ away, and I am alternating between S,A, and T. My fingers don't seem to recall where they should fall over their respective holes. In this early learning stage, should I only play one instrument until my muscle memory is not impeded when switching between instruments? Or is it better to keep changing between them in hopes that my fingers will behave properly when I pick up each instrument? Thank you.
+Carol Westlake Hi Carol, there's no hard and fast rule- find what works best for you! It could be worth taking it (for example) a few weeks at a time- giving yourself time to concetrate and progress on each size of recorder, but changing every so often to keep it going. Let me know how you get on!
That was so fun :) I definitely like this - maybe even get my kids playing something other than movie theme tunes.
Just a little party to play along with you😊
Thank you Sarah. I wish you MERRY CHRISTMAS and a Happy New Year full of Music!! Ciao!
Outstanding!! Well done
I would love to see all satb parts to "Once In Royal David's City" on the four satb recorders.
Love this! Thanks for breaking it down simply and then riffing on it!
Question... how might you approach playing a solo accompaniment for other instruments without sheet music?
I play in an ukulele group (we play songs from 1920s-present, some Hawaiian, most not). Some other of our musicians have played solos on melodica, flute, trumpet, and clarinet. Maybe one day I could play a solo part on recorder!
The solo doesn't have to be FOR recorder, but anything fun, modernish, and has lyrics.
Thanks!
Thank you Sarah! I'm practicing this with you from Quebec, Canada!! Great!!
Hello Sarah! Well i will challenge you with “Take Five” by Markus Zahnhausen from Flauto Dolce Solo collection, especially last section ;)
I do remember the very first time I heard this piece from the Mike Oldfield large 45r/min (Red if my memory is good) .There was a second voice with another sopran recorder at some point near the end. Fun to play with a sopranino too.
Thank you so much for this great video. I love it! I´m just starting to play the recorder and am so far not able to read notes. So this way it´s much easier for me to play along. I´ve always enjoyed this song and it´s so much fun to learn from you :)
Very fun to play along with you! I found the notations helpful, but when they disappeared half way through, my playing ground to a halt because the tune had not yet seeped into my brain and fingers! (I have always been astonished that some people internalize pieces after one or two hearings... but after years of musical practice, I have come to accept that I am not one of those people!) Next time I try to play along, I will start and stop the recording as often as I need to.
Can’t keep up
Lovely rhythm
I used to have sheet music so two soprano recorders as a duet - almost a kind of a canon. That was about 30 years ago. I have no idea where to buy interesting music for recorder. I heard a rosewood soprano recorder and was in love
Oh, it is a quick piece! And İ played it slowly 🙄
It couls be slow too, I bet it sounds nice that way!
This would be soooo much fun if I had a soprano recorder...
Update:
It works fantastic with a tin whistle in D so no need to buy a soprano
I really like this! It sounds really cool and great :)
Love it!
Baroque piece please!
Like for kodály methode too.
I reckon me and you are pretty similar... are you stealing my ideas?
FIS enkele boring is wel een andere greep! 0123567
Excellently played. I am trying it soon on my soprano recorder.
This was helpful, please do more very now and again.
Thank you! Please make more Videos like this one!
This was so much fun!! Thank you. I am just a beginner and have never played that fast before. After many times through I am starting to get the hang of it and now am not intimidated by trying to play faster. it also really taught me that I do not need as much air as I thought, just to focus it more. and breath support! Wow . When I play fast I can really set the support and then concentrate on the fingers. So much fun to play with the soundtrack and the 2 Sarahs backing me up. ; ) . Have a wonderful Holiday Sarah and John. Love all your instruction and hilarity.
+Emory Story That's awesome, glad you enjoyed it! 😄😄
like this tutorial.
its working for me
IMSLP links here don't work. nice song though thankyou.
updated!
i can only play slow only :(:(:(
Merry Christmas Sarah!!
Muito bom , parabéns ficou lindo .
You learned realy fast
Very fun, thank you!
Sounds really good :)
I love the melody part.
That was fun!!
Great video!!
Love it!
o zo fijn
How about teaching "Packington's Pound" like this?
+JULIAN THEBARBARIAN Ah nice tip, I love that piece!
Packington's Pound is one of my favs too - also Parade de Bouffons (or something like that !)
Sorry this isn't really related, but could you tell me if there is a quality plastic soprano recorder.
Jack Young - go to the Saunders Recorders website - he gives good reviews and isn't snobby about plastic versus wood. The Adris dream are available in plastic by Mollenhauer or the Aulos or Yamaha are good - don't go for the cheapest model with the Aulos and Yamaha though - I bought the Aulos 205A recently - think it's the 'Robin' - I really like it. they do some good trebles too.
I have an Aulos Haka soprano and alto and highly recommend them! I've been playing In Dulci Jubilo throughout the day hahahaha. There are sound samples on the website mentioned bij honeychurchgipsy6 so have a listen. I also really love my Dolmetsch Nova, I only have the alto though and not the soprano. Happy playing!
Merel 1379 - my Aulos alto is only the really basic one - I've been thinking about the Haka one as I can't always be bothered to warm up, clean afterwards etc my Moeck Rottenburgh (very lazy of me!) and would like something a bit better sounding. The little Aulos sopranino - same range I think as the haka - is brilliant - far better than the Yamaha - the way it is made is phenomenally good for the price and even the case is quite good.
Actually, those very cheep Yamaha plastic recorders are really great!
I agree! As I child I learned how to play on a basic Yamaha soprano and a few years ago I bought my son a transparent green soprano from the Yamaha Rainbow series and it plays beautifully.
How can I get notes? Link seems doesn't work for me ?
The first notes she uses the letters to represent the notes c d e f g a s
And the line down in the screen she uses the sounds that maybe is for another language do (c) re (d) mi (e) fa (f) sol (g) la (a) ti (b - si in my language).
If doesn't work now is because you are using a recorder with a different tune than soprano, like alto, sopranino, bass...
Gabriel Vieira I use soprano. Everything is ok. I had some error on phone youtube aplications. Thank you.
The notes in the second line are for solfège. The "si" is changed to "ti" for Anglophone people.
+Luca Simoncini Exactly! In the Netherlands we use 'b a g' but for example in Belgium it's 'do re mi'- trying to be inclusive ;)
Just google "In dulci jubilo sheet"!
There was no BEEP in the intro! :-o
NO! MY BEEP! I forgot my beep??!
🤣
Erg leuk alleen, mis een alleen een keer de backtrack alleen ,zodat je het een keer alleen kunt spelen.
Mvg
Dat krijg je een klein beetje op de 5e herhaling, waar het deuntje stopt en alleen het extra partijtje doorgaat ;)
Why am I here, I play bassoon.
I loved it! Inwould really like it if you'd make more🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
Praise god
The german fingering for F sharp is actually your three fingers at the bottom (pinky, ring, middle)
+Bagus Baskoro Sakti baaaaah thanks for pointing this out- that's why I never play German fingering! 😅
Hi Sarah! I am a hobby recorder player! Glad to see enthusiast recorder player like you. I like to play recorder very much, but here they treat classical music so bad haha, greeting from Indonesia (if u know what country is it)
This is a cool idea but maybe you should pick a Christmas tune people have actually heard before.
Rob Davies - have you really never heard this tune before?
honeychurchgipsy6 - Nope, I am almost 47 years old and listen to Christmas music every year
Hi Rob! A few points on choosing repertoire for this channel:
- anything modern/pop has copyright issues, ruling out my first choice which OBVIOUSLY would be Mariah Carey's 'All I want for christmas is you'
people definitely HAVE heard it before xD
Very odd. I posted about this and out of 1000 friends on social media, literally nobody I know has ever heard this tune, or even heard of it. Sure I like learning (and writing) new music, but I am thinking this song is only known in Europe (although none of my European friends have heard of it either?). Oh well. I am playing well-known pieces in the public domain. :-)
