arr. David Angerman. This very distinctive approach
to a contemporary hymn transforms the choir into
a percussion section while the tune floats above
with a message of hope and joy. The transparency
of a cappella writing is a refreshing aspect to this
choral. The evocative text paints a Christmas scene
of tender beauty. Captivating!

One of the most celebrated Christmas songs of
modern times is now presented with masterful
orchestrations! This is the accompanied version as
performed by Fred Waring and The Pennsylvanians.
Repeated drum sounds in the voices form the
background for the melody in this Christmas
standard that has become a holiday tradition of its
own. Add finger cymbals to the drum-like piano
accompaniment for the finishing touch. A must for
holiday concerts and services!

K. Lee Scott. A tender lullaby for the Christ Child,
or a prayer of hope for the coming of the Messiah
- both options can be realized with this lovely
original anthem for two-part chorus. Accompanied
with piano (harp) and flute, this is accessible for
children's choir yet sophisticated enough to be
done with unison or two part adult women. This
is a beautiful, expressive work particularly suitable
for Christmas Eve worship.

Greene/Schrader. This powerful contemporary
Christian song has enjoyed "discovery" by
personalities and recording artists such as Kathy
Lee Gifford and Kenny Rogers. The successful
arranging and orchestrating team of Jack Schrader
and Don Hart has perfectly captured the epic
drama of the text. The text looks forward to the
baby's purpose on earth. "Mary did you know
that your baby boy would someday walk on
water?" A touching song.

Noel, Noelarr. Linda Spevacek. The traditional
English carol God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen and
the French carol, Noel Nouvelet! (complete with
the original French lyrics as an option) are joined
with an enhancing, lyrical flute part to create one
of the most memorable arrangements available for
the holiday season! The minor mode is the perfect
backdrop for the "noels" which are creatively
woven into both carols. This piece works equally
well in both school and church settings.

Dramatic! Mark's interpretation of the wonderful
French carol is even more exciting than the original!
Unexpected harmonies, call and response chorals
and, of course, the fabulous accompaniment builds
this setting to massive choral and instrumental
heights. Challenging and so gloriously festive,
this is a tour-de-force for larger groups,
community glee clubs, and adult church choirs
whose cries of "Noel, Noel, Noel!" will resound
throughout the Christmas season.

the hushed silence of Bethlehem we are drawn
to a simple stable by the lullaby of a new mother
mingled with sounds of a baby's soft cry. This
tender moment is beautifully depicted with original

lullaby that will leave your audience breathless.
Sensitive and artistically done!

Midnight Clear in Bethlehem (Gesu
Bambino)arr. Greg Gilpin. The music of Gesu
Bambino, by Pietro Yon, is heard first with the lyrics
of O Little Town of Bethlehem, then with the lyrics
of It Came Upon a Midnight Clear, and the effect is
marvelous! Simply, yet elegantly, all three carols are
presented in such a fresh way that this arrangement
will be in great demand by school and church choirs
everywhere! Highly recommended!
