[rodgersorgan] Accompaniment Question

When performing Handel's "For Unto Us A Child Is Born", which accompaniment do 
most of you use? York or Novello edition? When we have the strings with us, I 
do very little on the organ, and let them take most of it, but when I use organ 
alone, I'm torn between the 2 different editions. While the Novello edition is 
basically what Handel would have played from, the York edition is basically the 
orchestral reduction, with all the harmonies, including the 16th note runs.

I'm interested in knowing which editions you all use.
