Lewis Carroll's puzzlingly hilarious poem â??You Are Old, Father Williamâ? (featured in The Adventures of Alice in Wonderland), set to a jaunty and slightly eccentric waltz tune by Cristi Cary Miller, will prove an attention-catching addition to any light concert. Simple two-part writing at its finest. The voice parts â??trade offâ? telling the story, with brief sections of harmony and countermelody. Pure unabashed fun!

The Urtext edition (2023) of Jean Sibelius’ Five Christmas Songs op. 1 for voice and piano is based on the critical edition presented in the volume VIII/2 Works for Solo Voice Vol. 2 of Jean Sibelius Works (JSW) edited by Jukka Tiilikainen. The lyrics are included in Swedish, Finnish and English.

Sakari Ylivuori's introduction illuminates the history of the beloved songs: May 1, 1913 was cold and wet. Jean Sibelius (1865–1957) spent the day at home at Ainola composing two Christmas songs: settings of poems for children by Zachris Topelius. The two songs born on that chilly spring day were Nu står jul vid snöig port (Now stands Yule at the snowy gate) and Nu så kommer julen (Now is Christmas coming). He then put them together with three Christmas carols he had earlier composed and gave the set the imposing Opus number 1. He had previously considered giving the distinction to various other works, but from 1915 onwards the Five Christmas Songs had the honour of heading his catalogue. [...]

There's nothing like the refined, ageless cool of a swing classic. “Wham (Re-Bop-Boom-Bam)” is about as “hep” as it gets, with a catchy melody and colorful lyrics that offer a snapshot of the era's finest musical slang. Roger Emerson's arrangement is patterned after the 1939 version by Mildred Bailey (as featured in the TV series Lessons in Chemistry), reflecting its tight jazzy harmonies and snappy syncopated rhythms.
