A George Litzel has de-macaronized In Dulci Jubilo by rendering the whole thing in Latin. I've set it in Sibelius to one of Bach's versions.

So, for Extraordinary Rite choirs, good news: we can at last sing this glorious carol during mass !! I've altered a couple of Litzel's words, but it's substantially the same.
Please hoping he doesn't sue - I've no idea who he is, but many thanks, George.
We tried it out at Midnight Mass on Friday/Saturday. Wonderful !!
I'm intending to underlay the equally splendid Robert de L. Pearsall arrangement with this text by next Christmas. Anyone else is free to do the same, of course ...
Corrections/ advice will be welcome.
