Joyful Angels Sing! (A Christmas Concertato)—
arr. Brad Nix. An ideal Christmas opening or

verses and a change of key to an a cappella
verse with some divisi. The accompaniment
returns, leading through key changes to the
final verses for choir, descant, and congregation
before closing with a brief return of the
choral fanfare. Optional accompaniment for
brass quartet, timpani, and handbells adds
to the excitement.
