SKU: A0.1098583
Composed by Edward Elgar (1857-1934). Arranged by Kara Williams. Christmas,Classical,Contest,Festival,Holiday,Religious. Score and Parts. 59 pages. Kara Williams #702446. Published by Kara Williams (A0.1098583).Whilst not as well-known as some of his other work, this delicate little Christmas song is distinctly Elgar. Composed for the Choir of Hereford Cathedral it evokes love, friendship and the English countryside at Christmas. Originally scored for two soprano voices, accompanied by two violins and piano, this delightful work has been thoughtfully re-scored for orchestra (including percussion) by Kara Williams, and is aimed at intermediate level ensembles. The passionately pastoral introduction section leads into a joyful 6/8 section featuring the two trumpets and a cheeky quote from Handel’s ‘Messiah’. This work is a lovely addition to any program, and not just for Christmas time! Scoring: Picc; Fl1&2; Ob1&2; Cl1&2; Bsn1&2 (Bsn2 sub Bcl); FHn1&2; Tbn (sub FHn3); Tba; Timp, Perc1&2; Vln I; Vln2; Vla; VC; CB.
