Full Score for 65/2106L Joel Raney calls on Celtic musical traditions and instrumentation to deliver a refreshing sound for Christmas! The orchestration by Ed Hogan incorporates Irish flutes, drums, acoustic guitar, and fiddle to paint vivid imagery of a beautifully lush and green Irish countryside. Familiar Christmas carols appear, as do some familiar Christmas texts set to beloved Irish and Welsh folk songs. An ethereal opening sets the stage before breaking into an exuberant rendition of I Saw Three Ships. Come, Thou Long-Expected Jesus; Away in a Manger; Gentle Mary Laid Her Child; and the beloved Angels We Have Heard on High all make appearances as the work progresses, culminating with a rhythmic re-imagining of O Come, All Ye Faithful set to the traditional Scottish melody Loch Lomond. One of the highlights of this musical is O Holy Night, written for soloist and choir and set to the timeless tune, LONDONDERRY AIR. Present the Christmas story in a uniquely captivating way with this imaginative work!

Hoewel de Engelsen een lange traditie kennen in het zingen van carols zijn veel van de melodieen die er worden gezongen afkomstig van het Europese vasteland - of uit Amerika. Desondanks heeft Philip Sparke een gevarieerde selectievan Engelse melodieen kunnen samenstellen voor dit prachtige 'Festival of Carols' - dat zowel met als zonder koor kan worden uitgevoerd.

Weihnachten, wie es heute in England gefeiert wird, ist eine relativ junge Tradition aus dem 19, Jahrhundert, die der deutsche Ehemann von Konigin Victoria mit in seine neue Heimat brachte. Viele gebrauchliche Weihnachtslieder stammen ebenfalls nichtaus England. Philip Sparke gelang es jedoch, eine abwechslungsreiche Sammlung von Liedern aus seiner Heimat zu diesem schonen englischen Weihnachtslieder-Festival zu formen.Die optional einsetzbaren Chorstimmen sind unter der Artikelnummer AMP227-050 separat erhaltlich.

<< La plupart des traditions de Noel en Angleterre sont relativement recentes. Montee sur le trone en 1837, la reine Victoria (nee de Hanovre) regnera jusqu'a sa mort en 1901. En 1840, elle epousa son cousin, le prince Albert de Saxe-Cobourg-Gotha. Leprince consort, originaire d'Allemagne, importa bon nombre de traditions de Noel allemandes au Royaume-Uni. Ainsi, il fit decouvrir aux Anglais la coutume du sapin et les cartes de Noel, entre autres, contribuant largement au Noel typiquement anglaistel que nous le connaissons aujourd'hui.Bien que les chants de Noel font l'objet d'une longue tradition en Angleterre, de nombreuses melodies que nous chantons proviennent ducontinent europeen ou des Etats-Unis. Je savais bien que le celebrissimeSilent Night (Douce nuit) etait d'origine autrichienne et que Hark, the Herald Angels Sing (Ecoutez le chant des Anges) etait d'origine allemande. Pourtant, quelle ne fut pas ma surprise d'apprendre qu'Away in a Manger (Sur la paillefraiche) ou encore We Three Kings nous venaient des Etats-Unis et que Ding, Dong Merrily on High etait un noel d'origine francaise. Quoiqu'il en soit, j'ai reussi a constituer un canevas de melodies anglaises pour realiser cefestival de chants de Noel. >>Philip SparkeRemarques sur l'interpretation : Cet arrangement est adapte pour une interpretation avec ou sans Chœur. S'il est joue par un Brass Band, les parties vocales seront doublees par des partiesinstrumentales.Les tempi indiques correspondent a une interpretation par un Brass Band seul. Si l'œuvre est donnee avec un Chœur, il est sans doute necessaire de baisser le tempo en fonction du nombre de choristes et de l'acoustique du lieude concert.Les parties de Chœur (en anglais) sont disponibles separement (Ref. : AMP 227-050).

A beautiful new setting that combines both of the Christmas carols with the same name into one complete arrangement. Ruth Elaine Schram has been recognized as one of the best choral composers and arrangers for many years now, and we are proud to be able to include her heartfelt work in our string catalog. This is an exceptionally colorful arrangement of these beautiful carols with flowing lines and fresh harmonic treatments. We can see why Ruth's music is so popular in choral music, and we know her flowing style will be popular with string groups as well.
