This gospel-style kicker features the bass section on the familiar spiritual melody. It's an arrangement crafted with tried-and-true techniques of the genre like rhythmic choral interjections, close triads, and ascending chord inversions. An exuberant add-on section shifts momentarily to bluesy minor, and a huge ritard at the end invites singers to bring the power. Raise the roof by performing with the lively SoundTrax or invite an improvising bass and drummer to play along. Premiered at the 2022 Missouri MEA conference under the direction of arranger Robert T. Gibson.

Christmas isn't Christmas if it's not with you. Nashville music duo Dan + Shay wrote this sentimental ballad with their families in mind. The sweet melodic hook and a heartfelt text translate beautifully for choral singing. Stage an intimate performance with piano alone, invite a guitar player to strum along for some contemporary color, or use the orchestrated SoundTrax for full effect.
