The Wexford Carol
arr. Matthew Culloton.
Matthew Culloton has created a fresh, stunning arrangement of this popular
Christmas carol. Though a cappella, the lower three parts sometimes act as
accompaniment with neutral syllables, granting prominence to the cherished
melody. The carol is frequently interjected by the arranger's own lovely melody,
as in the ritornello form. A true treasure!

What a Glorious Night
Casey Brown, Jonathan Smith, Ben McDonald and David Frey/
arr. David Angerman.
Pure joy announces the birth of Jesus in this festive song from the
contemporary group Sidewalk Prophets. There is almost a country-folk vibe in
this setting of the joyful call to praise. Lots of repetition makes this a quickly
learned piece, and the ranges are rich and fulfilling. This is so singable you can
even ask the congregation to join in on the chorus. Don't miss this one!

What Child is This?
Joel Raney.
This Christmas ballad takes a fresh approach to an old carol by pairing the
familiar text with a new, original tune. All three verses are incorporated with
the middle verse using the carol
GREENSLEEVES, but in common meter. Effective
and meaningful.

Whispering Palms of Bethlehem
Brad Nix.
From the very first measure, there is an impressionistic approach to this
evocative Christmas text. Unique in its perspective, the poetry is filled with
images of Bethlehem's palms and meaningful moments with the holy family.
The melody is very special, flowing above the piano writing, all creating a
sacred nocturne. Stunning!

The Winter Night Was Dark and Still
Patricia Mock/arr. Faye Lopez.
This beautiful meditation on the birth of Christ contains hushed moments of
awe and grand "alleluias" of celebration. The inclusion of an oboe makes this
piece all the more engaging. This anthem will be a great addition to a concert
or service.

With Wondering Awe

"Hosanna to His Name!" This delightful setting of a tune from Laudis Corona is
a marvelous choice for Christmas or Epiphany. Scored for mixed chorus with
piano, or with harp and wind quintet of flute, oboe, B-flat clarinet, horn and
bassoon, it has such a light, dance-like feel that everyone who sings or hears it
will be filled with the joy of the season!

This Holy Night
Mary McDonald.
Mary McDonald and Rose Aspinall team up for this sensational Christmas
ballad. God made a promise that he would make a way, and this quiet example
of trust still speaks to us today "on this quiet, silent night."

Underneath Starry Skies
Ruth Elaine Schram.
Gorgeous word painting sets the mood for the first Christmas night:
"underneath starry skies, shepherds are watching their flocks by night, angels
are singing as they are taking flight, and all are invited to greet the new baby
in a stable in Bethlehem." Tenderly tucked in the middle of this piece is the
traditional Welsh carol All Through the Night, giving the listener a taste of the
familiar within this stunning original. An elegant piano accompaniment supports
this memorable piece which is equally suitable for school or church settings.

Unto Us a Son Is Born
arr. Trevor Manor.
Scored for choir with piano and optional flute, brass quintet and percussion, this
is a beautifully crafted arrangement of the medieval carol Puer nobis nascitur,
with English translation by the arranger. "Unto us a Son is born; 'Welcome,
holy Stranger!' Let us go this happy morn and see Him in the manger..." With
or without the optional instruments, this is first-rate writing for church choirs!
Highly recommended!

Visit Us, Emmanuel
Pepper Choplin.

and mystical text in this original anthem. The flowing piano part and quote from
O Come, O Come, Emmanuel add to the depth of the piece. Share the depth of
Advent with this touching anthem.
