Fix Away in a Manger, O Holy Night, Kumbaya, Nobody Knows rhythms
Away in a Manger: 3/4 waltz now has beat-1 emphasis with half-notes
on sustained syllables ("manger", "bed"), proper waltz feel instead
of uniform quarter notes.
O Holy Night: Encodes the characteristic 12/8 compound feel with
dotted-quarter+eighth pairs (3,1) matching the lilting "O ho-ly night"
rhythm and half-note phrase endings.
Kumbaya: Slow meditative spiritual now uses dotted-quarter+eighth
(3,1) for the 3-syllable "Kum-ba-ya" pattern with half-note on "Lord",
matching the gentle rocking feel of the original.
Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen: Gospel dotted phrasing with
longer held notes on key phrases, replacing uniform quarter notes.
