LITURGICAL CHRISTMAS ANTHEMS
lL O Child of the Nations—arr. Howard Helvey.
The Sacred Harp gem
EXPRESSION has been paired
with a new Advent text in this a cappella anthem.
Sustained melodic phrases and mixed meter
combine expressively in this piece of rare beauty
and sensitivity. The setting is not difficult to learn
but quite effective in its presentation.

O Come, Emmanuel—Elaine Hagenberg.
"Colorful" is the best word to describe this original
setting of the traditional Advent text, scored for
choir, piano and cello. Marked "mysterioso" in
triple meter, it is such a creative interpretation
- the effect in performance is truly extraordinary!
Highly recommended!

O Come, O Come, Emmanuel—arr. Trevor Manor.
This arrangement is stunning! Scored for SATB
chorus, optional children's choir and congregation,
with piano or optional flute, organ and brass quintet,
it transforms the simple chant-like carol into a
magnificent opening for the Advent season. Each
verse, including one for a cappella voices, builds
toward a climactic ending. This is good enough to
become an annual tradition in your church.

t O Magnum Mysterium—Evan Ramos. Easy
and absolutely beautiful for a cappella voices,
this setting of the beloved Latin Christmas text
is a succinct and lyrical selection that will create
a moment of wonder in your concert or worship
service. Simple, elegant, and haunting, this piece
is a wonderful choice for developing choirs.

lL On Christmas Night All Christians Sing—
William Averitt. This setting presents four verses
of the familiar carol, each with a different feel and
flavor. Accompanied by piano with four-hands,
much of this piece's considerable energy comes
from the very active, constantly varying keyboard
writing, with everything culminating in a whirling
final verse, featuring a bright soprano descant.

lt On Hills of Bethlehem—arr. Robert Scholz. With
an expressive, lilting melody, Robert Scholz has
crafted a delightful choral setting of this original
poem for Epiphany by Carol Hodge. The harmonic
language is colorful but accessible, and each voice
part is given its own beautiful line to sing within the
fabric of the whole choir.
10912233 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95
l The Only Son of Virgin Born—Benjamin M.
Culli. This English cathedral-style anthem features
a memorable tune accompanied by dramatic and
thrilling organ writing. The full dynamic ranges of
both the choir and the organ are used, yet careful
use of unison, two-part, and four-part writing
makes this majestic piece accessible to even
modest-sized choirs. The lovely ancient text is most
often associated with the Epiphany season but is
useful year round.
10911608 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90
t
Patapan—arr. 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.

l People Look East—arr. William Beckstrand.
William Beckstrand's very creative setting of
People, Look East incorporates both the traditional
French carol and his own original material.
Challenging choral sections contrast with easier,
more lively sections. Scored for SATB voices, solo,
and piano or orchestra, it is celebratory and joyful
for concerts and Advent worship.
10881444 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.70
t Quem Pastores Laudavere—arr. Susan LaBarr.
This a cappella setting of a 14th-century carol tells
the story of Christmas - from the shepherds to
the kings to our own rejoicing for the Christ child.
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.
10593330 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.55
4L Savior of the Nations, Come—arr. Carl Smith.
The familiar Advent carol is beautifully and
evocatively arranged by Carl Smith. Other than the
descant on the final verse, the choir sings in unison,
thus requiring very little preparation. Practical,
inspiring and accessible!

4L Silent Night—Michael John Trotta. This beautiful
t
setting of Silent Night employs the original text with
new music scored for SATB a cappella voices and
optional descant. Color reigns supreme as the text
is almost treated in a secondary manner. Mostly
homophonic with a brief aleatoric moment that
captures the ear. A very distinctive and memorable
arrangement for any choir.

Silent Night—arr. Sandra Peter. A tender
accompaniment, sparkling harmonies, and rich
divisi vocal textures give this work its special quality.
With choices of piano, organ, or string quintet to
accompany the choir, the work can easily fit into
any Christmas program. Reproducible string parts
include two violins, viola, cello, and double bass.

t Softly—Will Todd. Will Todd's Softly is a
tranquil carol that captures the peace and spirit
of Christmas. Featuring subtle suspensions,
modulations and time signature changes, it will
appeal to a wide range of choirs.
10540618 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.40
t Spotless Rose—Ola Gjeilo. An extremely joyful
and uplifting setting of this well-loved Christmas text.
Gjeilo has crafted a beautiful melody that seems as
if it was always meant to exist with these lyrics.
Vocally accessible, this will be a good choice for both
schools and churches, along with more advanced
choirs. Can be sung in English or Norwegian.
10746479 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.75
l
There Came Three Kings—Philip Lawson.
Alternating between the 14th Century German Carol
Personet Hodie and original music and text by Philip
Lawson, this is a carol suitable for the sanctuary or
the concert stage. Interesting and thoughtful!
10845557 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.75
There is No Rose—Philip Stopford. A sublime
a cappella setting of the well-known anonymous
15th-century text. There is no divisi of the choral
parts, and the vocal ranges are very reasonable.
A truly magnificent addition to the Christmas
repertoire. Certain to become a favorite of choirs
and audiences alike.
10671536 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.50
lt There is No Rose of Such Virtue—Ethan
McGrath. Ethan McGrath has set the 14th-century
text, There Is No Rose of Such Vertu, for SATB divisi
a cappella voices with occasional solos. Rather
slow, with mixed meters, the music aptly captures
the gentle wonder of the text. Largely diatonic, the
harmonic language includes moments of lovely
stacked harmonies and occasional dissonance.
10879557 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.90
Lt There Is No Rose of Such Virtue—arr. Simon
Andrews. This traditional English carol is given
a new tune that captures the mystery and calm
inherent in the text. Beautiful, simple, and well
crafted with divisi. A gem!

lL This Day Our Christ Was Born—David Kidwell.
t The quiet joy of Jesus' coming at Christmas is
explored in this original carol by David Kidwell. This
SATB a cappella anthem is mostly homophonic and
is relatively short in length. An excellent motet for
the season.

4L Veni Jesu—Douglas Green. Featuring three
refrain text options, as well as the familiar text of O
Come, O Come, Emmanuel, this piece would be a
lovely addition to any choir's Christmas repertoire.
The piece begins with a unison tenor and bass line
and then steadily adds parts until it reaches a full
four-part texture. Handbells provide chords at the
beginning of the piece and during the verses, but
this can also be performed a cappella.

4L Watchman Tell Us of the Night—arr. Matthew
Culloton. Inspired by John Bowring's classic 19th-
century text, Michael Culloton has created new
music, scored for SATB voice and piano, that is
both lovely and approachable. The shifts between
G minor and G major recall the original tune and
support the Advent journey.
