Traditional French
Carol.
Angels We
Have Heard on High, a
popular Christmas song,
is likely a traditional
French carol. The lyrics
refer to the Gospel of
Luke's account of the
birth of Christ. In that
rendition, shepherds note
that the newborn child is
surrounded by a chorus of
angels. The chorus of
Angels We Have Heard on
High features a memorable
cascading effect of notes
on the text Gloria in
excelsis Deo, Latin for
Glory to God in the
highest. In this setting
of the popular Christmas
favorite, the melodic
material has been
carefully arranged for
four saxophones (SATBar)
by Bill Perconti.
