Merry minor key singing and dance-like rhythms! This rousing Greg Gilpin original sounds something like Irish folk music or perhaps a sea chantey. It's a festive holiday text complete with trimming the tree, decking the halls, plus plentiful fa la la's and noel's. Feature a mid-range soloist on the softer, slower, introspective moment just before the last spirited refrain. There's holiday cheer for one and all!

Choir Sacred (SATB choir)

SKU: AP.47638

Composed by Cliff Goldmacher and Lisa Loeb. Arranged by Andy Beck. Performance Music Ensemble; Single Titles. Alfred Pop Choral Series. Chanukah; Holiday Pops; Sacred. Choral Octavo. 12 pages. Alfred Music #00-47638. Published by Alfred Music (AP.47638).

A folk-infused ballad celebrating the miracle of Hanukkah. Originally recorded by 90s pop sensation Lisa Loeb, this reflective change-of-pace choral features a rhythmic yet mellow accompaniment and straightforward but expressive vocal parts. Whether you perform with the guitar-inspired piano part, the optional SoundTrax CD, or a folk ensemble of your own, this is truly a special touch for holiday concerts.

Because of changes in our school's schedule and the taking away of the music requirement in 7th and 8th grade, our choir numbers have dropped significantly. Searching for music that has educational value and that the choir will sound good on (we know that's important for the parents and faculty) I came across Light arranged by Andy Beck. This quickly became a favorite of my choir! The kids are excited to rehearse it every day and the sound they are achieving fits the folk-like feel of the piece.

We are using the 2-Part version. Being 7th and 8th graders, of my nine boys, three are unchanged voices (singing alto as written) and my other six are in varying stages of voice change. Those six are bouncing back and forth between alto and soprano parts, singing them down an octave.

Thank you for providing a great piece for the holiday season!
