Hallelujah Chorus (Adapted) (from "Messiah")
—G.F. Handel/arr. Adam Podd & Matt Podd.
If the original version of the Hallelujah Chorus
is a bit daunting for your choir, then this is
the version for you! It's a step lower, quite
a bit shorter, and treated with the utmost
musical care to bring out the best in any choir
while preserving the essence of the original
composition. The piano accompaniment
included in the octavos is a simplified
version, but there is a more advanced piano
accompaniment available separately that is
more akin to the version found in other editions.
Also available as a virtual choir kit.

The Hands that First Held Mary's Child—
Dan Forrest. An incredible text tells the
extraordinary story of a Child, whose journey
begins in Bethlehem, with the weathered
hands of a carpenter holding his newborn
son. "The hands that first held Mary's child
were hard from working wood. From boards
they sawed and planed and filed and splinters
they withstood. This day they gripped no tool of
steel, they drove no iron nail, but cradled from
the head to heel our Lord, newborn and frail."

I Saw Three Ships—arr. Mark Hayes. This
spirited setting of the traditional English carol
for choir and four-hand piano opens with a
rousing choral fanfare. Verses follow with the
melody sung first by upper voices and then
lower voices. Next, a homophonic verse is
followed by a marvelously creative section in
which the primary carol partners with Lo, How
a Rose E'er Blooming. Building in intensity
towards the close, we hear successively the
"bells" and the "angels" before "all rejoice
amain." Some choral divisi enriches the score,
including rich chords in the finale.
