Snow Gum by Fran Griffin for Two Flutes and Guitar. Alto and Bass Flutes are required for the performance of this piece. From the composer: In the wilderness of the Australian Alps, there is only one tree, the Snow Gum (eucalyptus pauciflora) that lives above 1600 metres. Snow Gums are experiencing severe dieback, caused by attack by a native beetle. Strangely, the beetle and the Snow Gums have coexisted for thousands of years, but now the Snow Gums are no longer able to withstand the hunger of the beetles. As yet the reasons for this are unknown. Huge areas of these once magnificent and colourful trees now stand grey and dead. In this piece I am depicting the gnarled and twisted trunks of the still living trees with their wonderfully coloured bark, in contrast to the ruggedness and desolation of the terrain. One can hear the alpine wind rushing through the leaves and branches, shaking snow to the ground..

The traditional Christmas text and new music combine to create an introspective work filled with reverent mystery and rich emotion. Set in a rocking 6/8 and minor mode, the first verse opens with back and forth phrases between the women and men, leading into a contrasting homophonic section in the 2nd verse. Following a modulation, the original melodic material then returns for the final verse. Excellent for school, church and community concerts!

Arranged for 3 to 5 octave handbell choir and optional 3 octaves of handchimes. Level 3. Venite Adoremus and In Dulci Jubilo. This medley of two tunes -- The Snow Lay on the Ground and In Dulci Jubilo -- provides a fresh take on both. Multiple stopped techniques are used throughout to beautiful effect, especially the extended section of martellatos at a piano dynamic in the bass. A final joyful verse of the first theme closes out the piece, which ends with a playful flourish.

A collection of nine festive Christmas carol arrangements regularly used by the Washington Chorus and at Trinity Church, on Wall Street in New York City. From the ebullient jubilation of Joy to the World and Angels We Have Heard on High to the expansive and sweet Un Flambeau and Silent Night, this new collection presents the best of Julian Wachner's stunning and varied redressing of these traditional tunes. Intended for full audience participation with the support of choir, organ, brass, and percussion, all of the arrangements in this collection also serve the needs of more modest presentations with the included keyboard reductions. In either form, the collection provides an excellent foundation for a traditional service of Lessons and Carols or for an energetic concert of holiday favorites!Contents:O Come, O Come EmmanuelHark, the Herald Angels SingUn FlambeauAngels We Have Heard On HighThe Snow Lay On the GroundNino lindoThe First NowellSilent NightJoy to the World
