Liturgical Christmas Anthems
On This Day, Earth Shall Ringarr. Bryan L.
Greer. This familiar tune from the sixteenth century
is given an exciting treatment for SATB chorus,
organ, piano, and four octaves of handbells. The
organ part is challenging and the vocal parts are
written in a thoughtful manner.

t Patapanarr. David Conte. This charming a
cappella setting of the familiar carol has a bright,
rhythmic ostinato pattern that moves between the
sections of the choir. The Christmas story is told
from the perspective of shepherds playing simple
instruments - flutes and drums - the onomatopoetic
sound of which gives the carol its name. "Pat-a-
pan" is meant to mimic the sound of the drum, and
an accompanying lyric, "tu-re-lu-re-lu," the flute.

t Quem Pastores Laudaverearr. Susan LaBarr.
This a cappella setting of a 14th-century carol tells

Uncomplicated in its construction, with utmost care
given to each iteration of the melody, it is very lovely
and offers solo opportunities for tenor voice.

Run Shepherds RunWilliam M. Schoenfield.
William Schoenfeld captures the festive spirit of
the shepherds' haste in a cherubic adaptation of
William Drummond's poem "the Angels' Song."

a sense of pastoral buoyancy. A two-part setting for
treble voices is also available.

Johnson. Based on the hymn tune CHARTRES and
a text by Cecil Frances Alexander, this interesting
piece speaks of our devotion to God and all that
God knows. It calls for children's choir or soloist,
SATB choir and keyboard. There are moments of a
cappella singing, and the voice leading is interesting
and strong.

a cappella setting of the well-known anonymous

t The Wexford Carolarr. Matthew Culloton.
Matthew Culloton has created a fresh, stunning
arrangement of this popular Christmas carol. Though
a cappella, the lower three parts sometimes act as
accompaniment with neutral syllables, granting
prominence to the cherished melody. The carol is
frequently interjected by the arranger's own lovely
melody, as in the ritornello form. A true treasure!

4 When Came in Flesh the Incarnate Word
Howard Helvey. New music from the uncommonly
creative Howard Helvey is paired with a poetic
19th-century text to create a quietly majestic new
anthem. This lovely Christmas carol, incorporating
an original hymn tune, is both engaging and
thoughtful. The exquisite organ accompaniment
provides a solid foundation for this message of hope
and contemplation. Highly recommended!

4 Who Will Go to Bethlehem?Simon Andrews.
This original text by Donald Goldstrom juxtaposes
events of the Christmas story with the present time.
The implied answer to the question posed in the title
is that we will go if the caroler will point the way. Set
in flowing triple meter with an engaging repeated
refrain which mostly alternates between 6/8, 7/8
and 3/4. Lyrical and lovely.

wrote for the St. Olaf Choir.
