Here is a fresh choral for the Festival of Lights. Lois Brownsey and Marti Lantz have teamed up once again to produce an original song for Hanukkah. Starting slowly and dramatically, Hanukkah Dedication quickly moves into a lively, dance-like refrain. The text touches on both the historical and spiritual significance of the Hanukkah celebration. The melody and accompaniment have a folk quality. Add the violin (part included in the choral) for a truly ethnic-sounding performance.

Choir Secular (2-Part choir)

Merry minor key singing and dance-like rhythms! This rousing Greg Gilpin original sounds something like Irish folk music or perhaps a sea chantey. It's a festive holiday text complete with trimming the tree, decking the halls, plus plentiful fa la la's and noel's. Feature a mid-range soloist on the softer, slower, introspective moment just before the last spirited refrain. There's holiday cheer for one and all!
