For violin and piano. Composed by Aleksey Igudesman. Set of Score and Parts. Universal Edition #UE038029. Published by Universal Edition (PR.UE038029).

UPC: 803452073116.

In a true performance piece, Igudesman starts us off, appropriately, with Jingle Bells, but a Jingle Bells heard through his ears. This polite opening quickly morphs into an Igudesman-style Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairies, followed by other surprises of sacred and secular bent. His opening note, Kind of Christmassy with a touch of Hannukah, is apt, as his (recommended) sung We Wish You a Merry Christmas leads directly into I Have a Little Dreidel. Timid violinists are advised to stick with the generic Silent Night (which, surprisingly, also makes an appearance here, along with Auld Lang Syne). True performers of advanced skills will want to work this oddity into their holiday program this year. Christmas Confusion is challenging for both players, but will delight audiences with surprising quotes from familiar materials.

Composed by Rory Cooney. Christmastide. Sacred. Collection. GIA Publications #8864. Published by GIA Publications (GI.G-8864).

New from Rory Cooney comes a glorious collection of music for the Advent and Christmas seasons. Many of the selections in this collection use tunes gathered from the traditions of various European cultures. Rory arranges these beautiful melodies and adds his own evocative texts, creating nostalgic yet new expres- sions of the Christmas story. The jewel in this Christmas crown is surely Rory’s SAB arrangement of “In the Bleak Midwinter.” It begins gently, quoting the first stanza of the Christina R ossetti text, then branches out into Rory’s own moving exploration of Christ’s incarnation. The “Christmas Gloria”— based on the familiar French carol “Angels We Have Heard on High”—employ s the text from the 2010 R evised Order of Mass. In this arrangement the third stanza of the prayer soars above the final refrain as an exhilarating soprano descant. Much of the newer music in this collection can be done a cappella. To enhance the texture, include the piano accompaniment, strings, and flute. Perfect for any choir large or small, the songs in Like No God We Had Imagined will add sparkle to your holiday liturgies. Contents: Friends in Christ, Rejoice, My Soul Gives Glory, The Advent Herald, Sing We Maranatha, In the Bleak Midwinter, Tomorrow Shall Be My Dancing Day, Still, Still, Still, In the Stillness of the Night, Christmas Gloria, Psalm 96: Christmas Midnight, Song at the Manger, Carol of the Stranger, Lullaby, Little One, Rise Up, Shepherd, and Follow, I Saw Three Ships, Light in the Darkness.
