Christina Rossetti's beloved 'In the Bleak Midwinter' sings beautifully in this lovely setting for expressive choirs. The meaningful text and breathtaking music are worthy of artistic interpretation. A gracefully supportive piano contributes a few soloistic flourishes and an optional C-instrument (oboe on our recording) adds a gentle obbligato. / Choeur SSA

Par L'ESTRANGE ALEXANDER. Another Christmas was inspired by the breath-taking winter scenery and the carols that composer Alexander L'Estrange had just been singing on a trip to Switzerland with co-writer Peter Gritton. Although written in a ?light? style, it has a message for all of us, particularly those that have grown weary of, or disillusioned with, Christmas!

From Broadway, pop and folk to spirituals, gospel and original works, the series is arranged for 3 part choirs (soprano, alto and a combined male-voice part) providing flexibility for any choir. Complete with straight-forward piano accompaniments supporting the vocal lines, the Faber Choral Singles series guarantees the perfect repertoire for every occasion ? so get exploring and get singing! / Choral Music / Répertoire / Voix Mixtes SAB et Piano
