A perfect seasonal choice, Onward we go is a consummate example of Thomas Hewitt Jonesâ??s feeling for young voices, and his passion for sharing the joy of Christmas through memorable tunes. A beautiful, arching melody carries the delightful verse by Canon Gordon Giles, which tells of children singing as they journey to the manger. Shepherds, angels and the Magi accompany them on their way, bearing gifts of love to honour the incarnation in faith, hope and reverence. Expressive and irresistible, words and music go straight to the heart, with a warmth especially inspired by the dedicatees, chorister-tutor Caroline Lenton-Ward and the childrenâ??s choir of St Stephenâ??s, South Dulwich, a church which also played a formative part in the composerâ??s musical upbringing.

Onward we go may be performed by unison voices with organ or piano, or with organ or piano and additional flexible instrumental ensemble including any available upper strings and woodwind, plus optional cello, bass guitar or double bass, mark tree and tubular bells.

A set of score and parts for the optional ensemble (Cat. No. Y373) will be available to purchase.

Original anthem From John Parker & Joel Raney, here is a light-hearted, 2-part mixed original, telling the story of the nativity in a jazzy style that hings at the Caribbean.

This setting of Videntes stellam aims to explore the extremes of emotion surrounding the revelation of Christ. The piece begins by depicting the vision of the star and the journey of the Kings, utilising a bright harmonic language in the organ and emphatic, cascading outbursts of praise from the choir, periodically interrupted by more reflective iterations of the text. Following a final declaration of exaltation and joy, the piece concludes with a peaceful and reverential picture of the giving of gifts to the infant Jesus, fading away as the organ takes up the original theme under the final statement of '... myrrham' from the choir. Suitable for evensongs or concerts throughout the whole of the Advent, Christmas and Epiphany seasons.

Videntes stellam was the 2013 winner of the New Music for St Paul's Cathedral Composition Competition.
