This elegant arrangement blends the familiar Christmas carols It Came Upon a Midnight Clear and The First Noel. The melody is passed to all sections of the orchestra with delicate pizzicato accompaniments, giving developing players the opportunity to work on slurs, dotted rhythms, legato phrasing, and tone production in the key of C major. A peaceful interlude builds toward a restatement of the opening First Noel theme that crescendos toward a triumphant finale. A wonderful selection sure to be a joy to perform in your winter concert.
