The timeless and year-round versatility of the Latin text Dona Nobis Pacem is set seamlessly with an English verse singing of understanding, kindness and hope for humankind.

This piece is an adaptation of the instrumental movement Reflection in Kim André ArnesenÂ’s large-scale work The Stranger. Arnesen was inspired by research showing the emotional effect of having eye contact with a stranger for only a few minutes. Studies have shown that this can develop deeper trust and empathy for each other. The idea was to have the audience facing each other to make eyecontact during the performance. With that being essential for peace among people, Arnesen used the texts “Dona nobis pacem†(“Grant us peaceâ€) and “Miserere nobis†(“Have mercy on usâ€) for this version for choir. An optional piano part is supplied which not only supports the choral harmonies, but provides underlying momentum, though a slightly slower tempo is suggested if the piano accompaniment is used.

For SATB (with divisions) unaccompanied Dona nobis pacem combines two lines about peace from the Ordinary of the Latin Mass. A slow tempo lends grace and poise to the gentle, sustained vocal lines, and the composer juxtaposes homophonic and contrapuntal writing to great effect. The piece may be performed in the alternative key of B major.

Already popular as a choral work, orchestral work and concert band piece, this new edition of Pacem Noel for string orchestra has been transposed so it can be performed in four different ways: independently, as an accompaniment to the choral version (CM9226), along with the band version (YPS85), or together with both band and chorus. This delightful holiday arrangement is based on the popular canon Dona Nobis Pacem combined with the famous carol The First Noel. It is effective, yet simple, and it brings together two beautiful songs in a delicate and musical way. As the title implies, may we all have Peace for Christmas..
