moment that will take your breath away! Set against
a gentle rocking syncopation, the familiar Austrian
carol is surrounded by a choral halo that recalls the
wonder of the first Christmas night with captivating

t
There Is No RoseGuy Forbes. This setting of
the traditional English text is melodically beautiful,
draped in warm harmonic fabric that is so very rich
and satisfying. "There is no rose of such virtue as

Three Contemporary Latin SettingsJerry
Estes. This special set of three short pieces is great
for captivating and motivating developing choirs; it
is now available for SATB choirs as well. The easy,
repeated Latin phrases come to life with fresh
musical ideas. The Kyrie, with its staccato versus
legato singing, contrasts with the simple, melodic
ballad feel of the Adoramus Te, which in turn is
contrasted with the celebratory style and energy of
the Gloria in Excelsis Deo. For school or church,
sung independently or as a set, for holiday use or at
any time of year, this is a powerhouse for teaching
and performing! Highly recommended!

n The Three KingsBob Chilcott. In The Three
Kings, composer Bob Chilcott sets verses from
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's Christmas poem
telling the story of the three kings' journey to
Bethlehem. A sense of travel is created by the
stately 6/8 time signature, and syncopations bring
an air of excitement and wonder to the tale.

t Veni, Veni Emmanuel (I Will Come)arr.
Michael John Trotta. A rhythmic ostinato on "Veni,
veni" and optional percussion (triangle, tambourine
and drum) infuse the traditional Advent carol with
such unrelenting energy, the effect on the listener
is mesmerizing! Detailed performance notes give
fascinating historical perspective to the work, as
well as an English translation of the text, which
is Latin throughout. This is a unique take on the
ancient carol that will be an exhilarating a cappella
highlight of your Christmas concert!

beautifully textured Darmon Meader arrangement is
very sweet and singable, with a simple, supportive
piano accompaniment. An amazingly effective a
cappella section helps to distinguish this as one
of the very best settings available of the beloved
English carol, and it is accessible to a wide range of
choirs. Highly recommended!

n What Strangers Are These?Dan Forrest.
Adapted from an old Scottish carol, this sensitive
new setting is accompanied with piano, flute and
classical guitar. The piece celebrates not only
Jesus' humble birth but the plan of redemption
that began to unfold at the stable in Bethlehem
on Christmas night. A rich musical tapestry, this
striking choral offering is particularly effective for
Christmas Eve services.

n All My Heart This Night RejoicesZ. Randall
Stroope. "All my heart this night rejoices, as I
hear, far and near, sweetest angel voices..." The
composer has adapted portions of the original
English text translation in this magnificent a
cappella setting. Stroope's mastery of the choral
idiom is clearly evident in every phrase of this
deeply emotional work.

t The Beautiful SingEric William Barnum.
"There's a song in the air!" The famous text by
Josiah Gilbert Holland is treated with great sensitivity
in this superb composition. Lush harmonies and
soaring melodies make this an elegant addition to
the Christmas literature for better a cappella choirs!
"...for the manger of Bethlehem cradles a king."
Highly recommended!

n The Darkest Midnight in DecemberStephen
Main. "The darkest midnight in December, no
snow or hail nor winter's storm shall hinder us to
remember the Babe that on this night was born..."
This traditional Irish text floats on a palette of
musical colors over wordless phrases which evoke
the stillness of the winter night and the rustling of
the wind. This award-winning composition uses
the celesta, or piano, to set a mood of mystery,
innocence and joy in the miracle of Christmas.

H Fantasia on Christmas CarolsRalph Vaughan
Williams. A "Fantasia" in the truest sense, this
choral tapestry of English carols was composed
in 1912 after Vaughan-Williams had completed
the scores for his first symphony ("The Sea"),
and the Tallis Fantasia. In this relatively short
work for Baritone soloist, chorus and orchestra,
we find the essence of Vaughan-Williams style
and compositional mastery - hallmarks of a richly
productive artistic output that defined a nationalist
movement in music that continues to this day.
Centered on four traditional carols: The Truth Sent
From Above; Come All You Worthy Gentlemen; On
Christmas Night; and There Is A Fountain; it also
features fragments of other well-known carol tunes.

t Patapanarr. David Conte. This charming a
cappella setting of the familiar carol has a bright,
rhythmic ostinato pattern that moves between the
sections of the choir. The Christmas story is told
from the perspective of shepherds playing simple
instruments - flutes and drums - the onomatopoetic
sound of which gives the carol its name. "Pat-a-
pan" is meant to mimic the sound of the drum, and
an accompanying lyric, "tu-re-lu-re-lu," the flute.

t Serenity (O Magnum Mysterium)Ola Gjeilo.
For a cappella mixed voices with violin or cello (parts
included), this soundscape on the traditional O
Magnum Mysterium text has long phrases that seem
to suspend the listener in space. A full six minutes in
duration, it is a stunningly beautiful contribution to the
repertoire for medium-advanced choirs!

rich, emotive selection for the holiday season.

n This Endris NightZ. Randall Stroope. First
published in Carols for Choirs 5, this is a touching
setting of the well-known fifteenth-century words.
The contours of Stroope's melodic writing perfectly
mirror the narrative from the manger scene, while
the simple refrain highlights the Christ-child's
innocence as his mother lulls him to sleep.
