The composer writes: â??I was delighted to be asked by Daniel Hyde and King's College, Cambridge to write this year's commission for the Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols. I have chosen to set a familiar text and tune - Angelus ad Virginem - and for it to serve as a tribute to the late great Simon Preston CBE (chorister and later organ scholar at King's). The text suggests something descriptive and exuberant, and this arrangement makes use of the original 13th century carol throughout. A colorful organ part is designed to propel the music forward, sometimes twisting and distorting the melody in unexpected ways, hopefully reflecting something of Simon's wit, vitality and stylish energy.â? - Matthew Martin.

This 13th century melody is arranged for high school choirs looking to expand into polyphony for the Christmas season. Smoothy melodic lines give way to smart challenges in range, while the B section dabbles in counterpoint--a perfect opportunity for study of Medieval forms.

This work grew out of the co-creator's love for the tunes and texts coming out of the Appalachian Mountains and the shape-note and early Moravian singing tradition. In the words of Tim Sharp, ââ¬ÅWe took the image of bands of angels singing and playing at the Nativity as reported in the second chapter of Luke's gospel, transported that image to Appalachia, and Angel Band is the result.ââ¬Â Containing 8 carols (mostly familiar), a processional and recessional, Angel Band is a fusion of ideas ranging from medieval tunes to contemporary bluegrass.
