“Ca ndles and Carols” is perfect for the small- or medium-sized choir for Advent and Christmas. The considerable talents of Pamela Martin and Mark Hayes have created an intimate, participatory experience for both choir and congregation, which celebrates the traditional Advent themes of hope, peace, joy, and love by observing the tradition of lighting the Advent candles. This work may be performed in individual movements throughout the weeks of Advent and Christmas, or in its entirety for any Advent Sunday, for Christmas Eve/Day, or for special seasonal celebrations. As each candle is lit and each narration spoken, beautiful settings of familiar carols—each having a newly written verse by Pamela Martin—may be sung by the choir, the congregation or any combination of the two. Choral part-writing is very accessible, and optional vocal solos are featured on some carols. The work may be performed with a full orchestra, a smaller ensemble, or a fully orchestrated Accompaniment CD.

The journey from Advent to Christmas is filled with vivid images of beloved traditions: the lighting of candles and Christmas trees as the light of Christ glows with increasing intensity; decorations of evergreens, symbols of the promise of rebirth; the emergence of stars atop the trees to guide the pilgrim journey; the presentation of gifts in celebration of God's great gift to us all. Throughout the centuries, believers have sung carols that celebrate these traditions, and A Garland of Carols combines these elements. It includes five suites, one for each Sunday in Advent and a fifth for Christmas Eve. Each includes an opening carol for choir and a closing medley for choir and optional congregation, as well as narratives for candle-lighting and inspired stories and scriptures for that suite's theme. The flexible choral texture makes it ideal as a one-rehearsal program for larger choirs or as an easily rehearsed program for smaller ensembles.

For centuries, believers have celebrated the season of Advent (or coming) in anticipation of the celebration of Christ's arrival. Hope Arriving offers a unique and refreshing means to easily yet powerfully usher in this special season. Five anthems (one for each Sunday of Advent plus one for Christmas) are included, centering around the five candles/themes of Advent and Christmas. Each song can be performed separately during Advent and Christmas or together as a special, 25-minute Advent worship experience. David Hamilton brings his signature of stunning arranging/orchestrations in a perfect blend from chamber to fuller instrumentations. Christy Semsen's optional narrative offers the opportunity to have church laypeople and/or families to read prior to each song. An optional devotional booklet is available separately for choir members or the entire church to enrich the experience. Songs include the breathtaking Be Born In Me (as recorded by Francesca Battistelli) along with favorite carols and two brand new songs penned by David Hamilton (Glory to God and Tiny Little Town). Create an unforgettable Advent experience for your church and community with Hope Arriving.
