Gustav Holst composed almost 200 works, one being a very elegant and charming fantasy on the old English christmas carols: Good Christian Men, Rejoice; God Rest You Merry, Gentlemen; Come Ye Lofty, Come and The First Nowell. The fantasy called Christmas Day was originally written for mixed choir with orchestra or organ accompaniment. Robert van Beringen has arranged this work for concert band exactly 100 years later. His arrangement can be performed as an instrumental piece or with a choir, making it suitable for any occasion.

Een van de tweehonderd werken die Gustav Holst heeft gecomponeerd, is deze fantasie over de vier oude Engelse kerstliederen: Good Christian Men, Rejoic - God Rest You Merry, Gentlemen - Come Ye Lofty, Come en The First Nowell.In 1910 schreef hij Christian Day - oorspronkelijk voor gemengd koor met orkest of orgelbegeleiding. Precies honderd jaar later bewerkte Robert van Beringen het werk voor blaasorkest. U kunt zijn arrangement geheelinstrumental, maar ook met koor uitvoeren.

Eines der 200 Werke, die Gustav Holst außer der bekannten Suite Die Planeten hinterließ, ist diese Fantasie über die vier alten englischen Weihnachtslieder Good Christian Men, Rejoice; God Rest You Merry, Gentlemen; Come Ye Lofty, Come und The First Nowell. Christmas Day wurde ursprünglich für gemischten Chor mit Orchesteroder Orgelbegleitung geschrieben. Genau hundert Jahre später bearbeitete Robert van Beringen das Werk für Blasorchester. Sein Arrangement kann rein instrumental, aber auch mit Chor aufgeführt werden.

Good Christian Men, Rejoice • God Rest You Merry, Gentlemen • Come Ye Lofty, Come • The First Nowell / La musique de Noël de Gustav Holst est touchante par sa fraîcheur et sa chaleur. Composée en 1910, cette fantaisie, basée sur quatre noëls anglais anciens, témoigne de la créativité et de l’imagination du compositeur. Originellement pour Chœur mixte et Orchestre ou Orgue, Robert van Beringen en a réalisé cet arrangement pour Brass Band et Chœur (ad lib.).

Kaleidoscope is specially arranged to suit almost any instrumental combination and these varied ensembles are easy and enjoyable too. So much scope for virtually any combination of instruments! The series is successful with recorders, guitars, percussion and keyboard as well as with orchestral groupings. Whether there are five or fifty players, every Kaleidoscope title will work! Just make sure that melody and keyboard parts are included - all other parts are optional. Kaleidoscope is superb value for money - each set contains a score plus around 50 parts, each one carefully written to suit the needs of each instrument.
