Beautiful music from Mary and Jay, deeply thoughtful narrations from Rose Aspinall, and a fabulous orchestration by Ed Hogan and Jay highlight the message at the heart of Christmas—God’s love through Jesus Christ. You’ll find a bit of everything here, including original songs, familiar carols, fresh settings of timeless Christmas favorites, and ministry songs that will reach the heart of every listener. Songs like Mary’s Sing Out Our Savior’s Birth and Look on Him with Love and Jay’s A Midwinter Noel and Love Made a Way all serve to bring into focus God’s undeserved and unfathomable love through Jesus Christ. Celebrate how love made a way for each of us with this impactful musical! His coming means freedom for the captive, sight for the blind, good news for the poor. Jesus is Love incarnate, and He alone makes a way home for fallen man..

In Engelslicht und Dornenschatten, the author invites us to listen to well-known Christmas carols in a new spirit, beyond all hoary cliches. The Lieder fur eine stille Weihnachtszeit and especially the different instrumental accompaniments grew out of improvisation and the desire to encourage the formative creativity of the musicians. The arrangements correspond to the recordings on the eponymous CD known through radio broadcasts. I sought new approaches to the carols. My fingers played accompaniments as if on their own, my voice made repeats where there were none, and did away with some of the carols original form. It was as if something within me was searching for a counter-magic to thwart the force of habit and the automatism with which Christmas carols are often sung and heard. (Christine Maria Rembeck).

What would Christmas time be without music-making together? Advent, Christmas, and winter songs play an important role for all beginners on a melody instrument, because with these they can show off their progress on the instrument during the first year. And nothing is better suited to this than well-loved and popular pieces such as Christmas classics. The six volumes in our new series for instrumental teaching, developed in collaboration with the Landesakademie fur die musizierende Jugend in Baden-Wurttemberg, all contain 20 easy carols arranged in progressive level of difficulty. Experienced instrumental teachers have made a selection of carols for each instrument according to specific criteria. These can be mastered as part of music school lessons after just a few weeks and months. All the carols have been chosen and transposed so that the range and fingering combinations do not exceed the level of difficulty for the first three years of learning. The piano accompaniment is of moderate difficulty. For many of the carols, an ad lib upper or lower part is included which can also be played by instrumental pupils. The volumes are therefore suitable for individual as well as group tuition. The arrangements are based on the piano and instrumental books from the CHRISTMAS CAROLS project (Carus 2.403/03 und 2.404/03) which is part of the LIEDERPROJEKT, the charitable project to further singing with children. The books contain singing texts for all the carols, providing a full range of options for singing and playing together at Christmas. All the books include the printed music of the piano accompaniment. Digital playalong tracks are available for all the books. Further editions for flute, recorder, clarinet, alto saxophone, trumpet.
