A popular holiday favorite performed and recorded by today's top artists including Luciano Pavarotti, this new arrangement is flowing and makes good use of the shifting tonalities of the beautiful piece. The warm harmonies and exquisite lyricism will make.Gesu Bambino is the most recognized composition by Italian composer Pietro A. Yon (1886-1943). A respected concert organist, Yon was organist at the Vatican as well as St. Patrick's Cathedral in New York City from 1926 through 1943.We begin with a gently flowing rhythmic pattern in the celli which establishes the 12/8 meter. Throughout the piece Yon uses the traditional Christmas carol O, Come All Ye Faithful as a countermelody. This first occurs with a short quote when the second violins enter in measure 3. The first violins entire in the pick-up to measure 5 with Yon's main melody. Careful attention to dynamics should be paid throughout, but especially in cases such as measure 9-10 where they change dramatically from piano to forte. The pick-up to measure 14 has the viole and celli playing the O, Come All Ye Faithful countermelody through measure 21. This occurs again in the first violins with the pick-up to measure 32. Make full use of the crescendo in measure 53. Played with warmth and reverence, this will be an effective showcase for the orchestra.- Roy Phillippe.

A warm and richly scored setting of the popular Christmas carol Bring a Torch Jeanette, Isabella, this full sounding arrangement will greatly enrich seasonal programming. Roy Phillippe has employed a broad palette of harmonic and instrumental colors to craft a memorable holiday selection.Bring a Torch is a lovely Christmas carol. Using techniques such as suspensions, re-harmonization and modulations, my goal is to provide an interesting showcase for this familiar melody. the introduction in F major features sustained violins with a pattern of moving eighth notes in the violas and cellos. This pattern recurs throughout the piece. The first statement of the melody is in the first violins. The second violins supply harmonic support along with the viola/cello pattern. Measures 13-29 feature a section of tutti chordal playing. Measure 30 crescendos into the modulation to D major at m. 32. Here, the dynamic is forte, and the viola/cello pattern returns. At m. 40, the violas and cellos have the melody with violin accompaniment. A crescendo begins at m. 44 and builds to fortissimo at m. 48, featuring a modulation to G major. At this point the melody should soar. A descrescendo at m. 60 is followed by a ritard at m. 64. The final four measures are in the original tempo ending on a tutti chord.Careful attention to dynamics, especially in the accompanying parts, will result in a fine performance.
