New Christmas Musicals

2 Foreword Have you ever shopped for new choir music, discovered an anthem you really enjoyed, and then realized, "This is just TOO BIG for my choir?" We understand that frustration, and to help, we've assembled this economical collection of anthems in SAB format. Half of the titles below were originally published in four parts, but have been skillfully edited to fit a smaller group. The rest were written especially for three-part choir, including three that have never before appeared in a collection. You'll see many familiar names among the list of composers; some have applied their imagination to favorite hymn tunes, while others have given us brand new musical ideas. We're sure that your choir will appreciate the variety and inspiration of this new collection! —The Publisher Contents Holy Thy Name ....................................... ar hyd y nos ....................
