Questions about All To Christ
What is the doh of All To Christ?
In this version, in Eb major, doh is Eb. If your choir sings it in another key, doh moves to the new key note and every solfa syllable stays the same — that is what movable doh means.
What note does All To Christ start on?
It starts on d (E♭ in Eb major), a pickup before the first full bar. Find doh first, then sing up or down to d.
What words can be sung to All To Christ?
All To Christ is in the metre 6.6.6.6 +.5.5.7.6: lines of 6, 6, 6, 6,, then, 5, 5, 7, 6 syllables. Words written in the same metre fit it; check where the stresses fall before you sing them together.
Is All To Christ in the public domain?
Yes. John T. Grape died in 1915; the tune was first published in 1868. Everyone named died before 1955 and it was published before 1929, so the tune is out of copyright in Nigeria, the UK, the EU and the United States. Modern arrangements of it can still be under copyright.
