The holy night
of Christmas is
celebrated in many
cultures throughout the
world. Robert W. Smith
gives us a new
arrangement of the
classic carol O Holy
Night in a Celtic style.
Following a beautiful
introductory statement,
the Irish musical roots
come to the fore through
percussion and flutes as
they create an Irish jig.
The clarinets present the
melody in the beautiful
chalumeau register
juxtaposed against the
jig. The arrangement
builds throughout leading
to a very exciting
conclusion that is
decidedly an Irish
celebration. Very highly
recommended!
