words and original music add to the melody from
Henry Purcell's spirited Sing for Joy to create
a perfect opening holiday choral work. Unison
singing introduces the melody, which develops
into homophonic parts. A "bridge" of original
music adds newness to the Purcell melody. The
optional trumpet and bells add texture to help
make this sparkle for the season.

with the twelfth day set to a pseudo-
Sousa Stars and Stripes Forever.
