It's a dynamic duo of fabulous '50s holiday hits! Choral singers will enjoy the traditional harmonies and laid-back swing of this mini-medley that clocks in at just over three minutes. The doo-wop falsetto pops near the end provide a nifty nod to nostalgia. For even more fun, add some showmanship with Santa hats, jingle bells, and riser choreography. SoundPax includes parts for a standard rhythm section.

Black as the midnight, and white as the snow; gold as the sunshine, my cat of calico. A bouncy and buoyant melody is supported by a folk-song-style piano accompaniment and some easy-to-sing harmonic patterns in this truly charming 2-part original by Andy Beck. Singers won't be able to get enough of the tongue-twisting patter text as they tell the tale of the whimsically colorful cat. Directors can take special pride in teaching the optional cue notes and accented descant that adds a fluffy coat near the end. This title is available in MakeMusic Cloud.

After combining a beautiful, traditional Irish melody with a fascinating nineteenth-century text, Marilyn Biery then added a relatively simple accompaniment, a straightforward C instrument part, and effective two-part vocal writing to create a synergistic whole! There is some brief SATB divisi near the end of the piece, but the AB parts are completely optional.

Something special for Hanukkah, a wish for peace throughout the year is the centerpiece. The melody is sung in unison before appearing in echo format, making this gentle choral ballad ideal for those who are new to singing in parts. An optional small group near the end adds a third layer, if desired.
