29 Christmas arrangements. For mixed choir with one male voice (ad lib) and piano accompaniment The chorissimo! Christmas choral collection contains varied and fresh repertoire for all kinds of singing occasions during Advent, Christmas, and wintertime. Its hallmark is its great stylistic variety, ranging from Christmas classics in modern arrangements, via spirituals, canons, and quodlibets to folk melodies from Europe and South America (mainly with German, English, and French texts). The 29 arrangements by leading composers and arrangers, experienced in the youth choir field, are extremely satisfying through their practicality, great singability, exciting rhythms, and changing tonal colors. Scored for two to three upper voices (soprano, alto) and one male voice (often ad lib) and piano, the choral collection is tailor-made for young people and follows on from the well-established chorissimo! orange volume. Here too, the male voice part is specially arranged for young voices, and is clearly supported by the keyboard. The choral director's volume contains a selection of arrangements to get to know on CD, sung by members of the renowned Calmus Ensemble Leipzig. For rehearsing and independent practice, a piano playback and practice aids are available; a choral score and a separate piano part are available. 29 Christmas carols in new arrangements: songs, spirituals, and traditional songs, plus canons and quodlibets movements for 2 or 3 upper voices and one male voice with piano accompaniment many arrangements with ad lib instrumental upper part experienced arrangers from the fields of classical music, jazz, and pop singing texts mainly in German, English, and French conductor's volume contains CD with selected movements recorded by members of Calmus Ensemble Leipzig separate piano part, instrumental parts in C and B flat, and practice aids are available as a bargain additional set handy choral edition (editionchor) with attractive bulk buy prices Pre-order the choral director's volume including CD now at the special introductory price!
