UPC: 038081562223. English. Traditional Spanish Carol.
Victor's arrangement of this gentle nativity carol from Spain is sung entirely in the original language (a pronunciation and translation are included). This sensitive treatment captures the lullaby mood and adds a light rhythmic undercurrent in moderate 3/4 time. The tonality shifts seamlessly between D minor and D major to reflect a text that moves from quieting the baby to a rushing fountain and singing birds. While the words do return, no two verses are set in the same manner, creating an ever-evolving arrangement. Piano fingers dance over the keys with triplet turns and easily grasp the bigger chords in the supportive and stylistic accompaniment. A nice contrast on holiday programs.

From master composer Antonio Vivaldi's Laetatus Sum (a setting of Psalm 121), this edition brings the brief work to today's choirs. Featuring an accessible Latin text and a lively optional cello part, this well-crafted arrangement is an ideal introduction to many of the conventions of Baroque style, including terraced dynamics and the alternation between a small group (or soloist) and the full ensemble.

Original Anthem Especially meaningful during the days of Holy Week, this Christopher Idle text relates to our Lord praying in the garden of Gethsemane, and weaves around the 'tree' theme found in many Scriptures about the cross. Lloyd Larson's original accompaniment for piano, plus the optional flute, oboe, French horn and cello perfectly capture the somber mood. This top-seller is now available in SATB, SAB, Two-Part Mixed voicings and a new Medium Voice Solo. The SATB version appears in Lloyd's blockbuster Lenten musical, The Shadow of the Cross, newly re-voiced for SAB choirs.

This joyful and tuneful carol uses 12/8 to its fullest, bouncing between 4 dotted quarter notes to 6 quarters in a measure, and the effect is delightful. Smuggled into the piece is a touch of â??What Child is This.â? But his original music is so strong it carries the day - a lovely verse and powerful chorus that is the title. Released in SATB just last year, it became a run-away hit, demanding this SAB revoicing. Easy to Medium in difficulty.

Although any piece with abundant references to snow and cold would easily be placed in the ââ¬Åwinterââ¬Â category, ââ¬ÅWatch it Snowââ¬Â is a song that can be sung at any time of year. The falling snow can serve as an expressive metaphor: just as we must wait for the storm to pass before we begin shoveling our driveways, we must rest and reflect in the moments of calm between the many challenges of life.
