This is the spiral-bound
edition for instruments
other than keyboard and
guitar. Â The third
volume in this popular
series, Revival III
features arrangements of
fourteen familiar
Christmas carols for
contemporary ensembles.
Christmas carols, like
many traditional hymns,
are often arranged for
four-part choir and
organ. With this
collection, Tony Alonso
focuses instead on the
needs of the piano- or
guitar-based ensemble,
creating accessible carol
arrangements for SAB
voices, piano, and
guitar. Also included is
an optional alternate
harmonization for the
final stanza of each
piece featuring a soprano
descant. Although these
arrangements can be
utilized as choral
anthems, they are truly
intended to lead and
inspire congregational
song. They are compatible
with the texts found in
GIA’s hymnals and
yet can be edited easily
to agree with the version
of the carol most
familiar to the assembly.
