The first two carols of the set are Bennett’s own creations a study in contrasts. The first is a classic carol in common time with syncopation and a divisi Chorus. The second is the engaging African Crib Carol in 3+3+2/8 timeagain with divisi Chorus. The third is a lilting arrangement of a traditional Somerset carol. Separately or as a suite these three carols make a fine addition to seasonal school programming.F Roy Bennett was a respected musiceducator and author of the 20th century who wrote many books of music theory and history that are highly prized by primary and secondary school music teachers. As a composer he was a gifted writer of words and music for schoolchoirs as in this set of three carols.
