Three gifts, gifts of great significance; gold, frankincense and myrrh were laid at feet of the Christ Child. These were gifts that could only comefrom royal treasures. The gifts we bring are of much greater value to the Lord; my life, my heart, my praise, all of my desires, all of my accomplishments, all of my failures, all of the thanksgiving I can comprehend, all of me, the surrender of my imagined authority to the Author of all life, the Giver of every good and perfect gift - Jesus. Messiah.

We believe the “Ubi Caritas†chant came from the 8th century, and it has been further enhanced by many of the best composers over the ages. This setting brings many fresh colors into view, but most notable is the narrative section, which requires singers to complete the sentence, “If only the world could...†and share it at a point in the music. It is a powerful and unique addition to this song of unity and love. For high school and college choirs.

UPC: 038081562230. English. Traditional Shaker Song.
This creative arrangement of the well-known Shaker song passes the traditional tune to every voice part, using the others to support the buoyant melody. Scored for a mixed choir with congas, claves, and maracas, Mark's setting opens with a bit of suspense that soon breaks into a bright a cappella feature. Some rhythmic augmentation provides a warm center before returning to the vibrant feel. Fans will note a few additional lyrics that celebrate the gift to be loving, light, hopeful, and true. A final flourish fans out from the only unison measure into a resounding G major chord.

Texts: Latin and EnglishPublisher: Boosey & HawkesDifficulty level: 3The Ceremony of Carols is one of Britten's best-known and most-performed works. It is a brilliantly conceived and dramatic concert work which sees the voices process to their places singing unaccompanied plainsong and, at the end, processing out again to the same chant. These movements can also be accompanied but strictly only if the voices do not process. The final Alleluia can be repeated as many times as necessary to get the singers to and from their destination.The carols are for three-part children's voices (though, of course they can be sung by female adults as well) and they form a two-part work around a central Interlude for harp which is based on the plainsong from the Procession. Variety is the key word here as all the carols have such individual identities. The forthright Wolcum Yole!, the deliciously lyrical There is no Rose, the swinging Balulalow, the fiery and dramatic This little Babe all contribute to a work which is a feast of discovery throughout. Lovely solos and duos add further colour and the harp part, an inspired choice of accompaniment, enriches, colours and surrounds the voices with its pictorial musical imagery. If anything shows Britten's genius for writing for voices it must be this work.The challenges here are in creating a real equality between voice parts, fielding a confident pair of soloists, and making the most of the wonderfully colourful poems Britten has chosen to set. Pronunciation is not really an issue, but when I recorded this work with the Finzi Singers I decided to follow the example of Sacred and Profane and use authentic medieval pronunciation for which an expert coach was necessary. It brings an added element of colour to a familiar aural experience.Duration: 22 minutesPaul Spicer, Lichfield, 2011.

The span and scope of the Christmas Story is in stark contrast to the rather sparse information offered to us in the narrative of the New Testament. What we do have is a timeless and mystifying mosaic of events that reshaped the course of human history. This is the chronicle of events that could never pass the scrutiny of human invention and imagination. It remains impossible to imagine the unthinkable. This is a story so profound that it demands to be shrouded in simplicity - so breathtaking that it requires some space just to comprehend the intent, let alone the reality - so unbelievable that it must be anchored in truth. This is a story that is Divine in origin and Eternal in design. This is the story of God in Heaven who loved the world so much that He sent His Son, that whoever believed in Him and the sacrifice that He would make, would never perish, but would have eternal life. Only God could make that promise, Only Christ could pay that price, Only Love could write this story.

The often-quoted Charles Wesley text is set here using the congregation as a central element of the music. First the phrases they sing are modeled by a soloist (or soprano section,) then supported by the soprano line, but eventually the congregation is left on its own to hold a note now and then while the choir moves on. Emotional and compelling, the piece is written with several accompanimental options: Piano can be used, playing from the choral score. The full score shows an optional handbell part (5 bells in a 2-oct. range), a separate organ part, and a special piano part to be used only if done with organ.
