Christmas Troika

Sleigh Ride-Troika is a Russian word that means a group of three but it also means a light Russian sleigh pulled by three horses. Christmas Troika portrays the joy of Christmas via a musical sleigh-ride. Listen as the glistening snow crinkles beneath the weight of the sleigh and the hooves of the prancing horses as it travels through the countryside. One can almost see the frost on the trees and hear the wind blow and the sleigh-bells ring as the tune O Come All Ye Faithful winds its way through the music.

Jane Sebba's Christmas Fare offers a truly original angle on the festive season: the sprited jazzy Troika and Christmas Fare contrast strikingly with two poignant moving ballads to produce an irresistible entertaining collection. A must for the end-of-term Christmas concert!The Faber Young Voices series is devised specifically to address the needs of young or newly-formed choirs looking for easy yet rewarding new repertoire.
