Three Silent Nights—Welsh Carol, Franz
Gruber, Adolphe Adam/arr. Austin Isaac.
A combination of three favorites for the
holiday season: All Through the Night starts
out with energy before the tempo slows
down, the key modulates, and the meter
changes for the meditative Silent Night,
which crescendos gradually into the lyrical
O Holy Night for a dramatic conclusion. First
violins, cellos, and basses will encounter
some shifting, while all players get to work
on a variety of finger patterns. A beautiful
medley for a night of winter music!

accents, and eighth notes.
