Bartók’s 'Romanian Christmas Songs' are based on folk melodies that originated in a pagan celebration of the winter solstice and which he felt gave “the impression of a fiery war-like type of song ratherthan a pious and religious one”. Nevertheless he chose 20 melodies from this collection of “colinde” and published them under the title of “Christmas Songs”.In the first edition of 1918 theywere conceived for children’s hands and so were published “without octaves”; but in his revised edition of 1936 which we present here Bartók added an appendix featuring alternative “concertversions” confirming that these miniatures are also perfectly suited for public performance.This Urtext edition is based on that of the Bartók Complete Edition and for the first time integrates these concertvariants directly into the musical text. We also offer the original melodies and translations of the texts of these colinde to provide an insight into the origins of this rather different kind of Christmas music.

On Christmas Night is a musical celebration of the Christmas story presented as a sequence of eight original carols. Chilcott calls upon several familiar carol melodies within his own settings resulting in an impressive array of styles and moods-from comforting and reflective to jubilant swinging and folksy. The work as a whole can be performed liturgically or in concert with or without the composer's suggested readings while individual carols may also be programmed separately. Combining tradition and invention On Christmas Night is a versatile and enchanting addition to the choral repertory.

Probably composed in 1690 the Messe de Minuït pour Noël H 9 is perhaps Marc-Antoine Charpentier?s best-known composition after the Te Deum H 146. The special appeal of this ?Mass for the Midnight Service on Christmas Eve? lies in its use of no fewer than ten traditional French carols while impressively revealing Charpentier?s mastery of the concertante style.The eight solo vocalists (SSAATTBB) can easily be taken from the chorus. They are divided into three groups ? one group of two sopranos and two groups each comprising alto tenor and bass ? which interact with the chorusand instruments. This new edition represents the current state of scholarship and offers a completely revised Urtext of Charpentier?s masterpiece.- Urtext based on the latest scholarly research- Straightforward and easy-to-play keyboard reduction- Duration: approx. 25 minutes- Full score and parts (BA7592) and vocal score (BA7592-90) available for sale
