"How like a winter hath my absence been, like a winter, from thee..." This artful setting of a text by William Shakespeare works equally well as a winter piece or as a secular concert work. Sing the liquid phrases with a beautiful line and observe the tempo nuances to attain the most expressive performance. Haunting! 10274943 SAB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.85 10274944 SSA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.80 10275227 Multi-Song Accomp. CD . . . 44.99 4 I Heard the Bells on Christmas DayJohn Baptiste Calkin/arr. Ryan O'Connell. This fresh arrangement treats the traditional English carol like a contemporary theater piece. You may recognize the words and the tune, but you'll hear the meaning for the very first time, and Longfellow's text is still poignant today as we continue to strive for "peace on earth, good will to men." 10514872 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 10514873 SAB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 10514874 TTB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 10514875 P/A CD . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 27.99 n I See a StarGreg Gilpin.

The incomparable musicianship of John Rutter shines through every measure of this heartfelt original. "I wish you starlight on fields of snow, the winter's morning light and evening's glow; I wish you candles that shine from every tree, so all the world can see the light that there could be..." Especially effective as a closer for a Christmas concert or pageant, it conveys a universal message of peace, joy and love for every day of the year. "And may God bless you till we all shall meet again." Highly recommended! 10065954 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 10065957 Orchestration . . . . . . . . . . . 50.00 4 If the Snow Could SingAmy F. Bernon. Amy Bernon's imaginative style is fully evident in this charming winter piece for younger groups. Singers will explore varied musical styles as the text considers different kinds of songs the snow might sing, if it could: a simple tune, a lovely lullaby, a hearty tale, and finally, an invitation to sing along. Your young students will love this! 10514883 Two-Part . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 10514884 P/A CD . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 27.99 n In WinterVictor Johnson.

A welcome addition to seasonal repertoire for young choirs, this delicate, reflective original sings of the great beauty and many contrasts of winter.

"No strangers walk this pathway, but friends both great and good, who find a kindly welcome at the inn by the edge of the wood."

It's a ready-made candle-lighting ceremony as a soloist sings with a solitary flame, a second voice adds its light, and gradually the whole choir illuminates the stage with their voices and hopes of peace. One Latin phrase, "Dona nobis pacem," is sung by the echoing chorus, then "in the glow of candlelight I see... peace for you and me." Choirs of all ages will sound their very best on this at Christmas or any time of year!
