In today's society, individuals tend to not fully appreciate the beauty in themselves and others. The world is full of loud voices that often send out mixed signals out to our young people.

The use of the major 2nd is meant to ask each chorister to "listen" and tune to create beauty within the dissonance. The song is based on M. Aumonier telling quote, "There is always music amongst the treesin the garden, but our hearts must be very quiet to hear it." A cappella choral SATB octavo (some divisi). 2:56. See full text below.

This setting of the Christmas classic is a stylistic fusion between modern British choral sound and Gospel/Soul.

It is accessible, fun to sing yet different and special. Imagine a stylistic synthesis between John Rutter and Take 6.

School, Gospel, church and other choirs will love the arrangement. You can even sing it with classical or contemporary sound.


Please contact me if you're singing my arrangement. I would love to hear it!
