Beauty and flexibility abound in Timothy Shaw's strophic setting of the beloved Apple Tree Carol. Written in a minor key with a pensive mood, the unison stanzas could be shared by children, soloists, or choir sections. Optional vocal harmony and instrumental obbligato add further texture options. While not limited to the Christmas season, this is a great addition to your next Lessons and Carols service or to sing during Christmas worship.

An original, unaccompanied setting of this ancient text, this was written to be quickly learned but is quite satisfying in all respects. The melody in Dorian mode is timeless, the texture builds from unison to four part, the final verse is almost all in unison. Manageable but memorable.
