The Annunciation - The Nativity - The Presentation - The Rejection - The Cross - The Resurrection - The Assumption .

This composition, written by William Llewellyn and arranged here for SATB chorus, is different from the one normally associated with this carol. However, it is still set to Christina Rossetti's haunting poem which depicts the pictoral and human attributes of the Incarnation. The imagery of winter follows the example of Milton's On the Morning of Christ's Nativity. It also follows the tradition, used by Milton, that at Christ's birth, the earth was covered with pure white snow

Taken from Christopher Smart’s intriguing poem “The Nativity of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ,” this four-part a cappella anthem for Christmas Eve and Christmastide sits comfortably in the tessitura for each voice part throughout plus a section where the tenors are at the top of their range. The piece also offers an alternative SSAA arrangement of this latter section. Optional SSAA voices.

Be thlehem Carol was the result of a commission in 2000 from the Cathedral Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. The request came from the Cathedrals music director, Russell Jackson; he had very much liked the Italian Fable cum Violin Concerto (The Big Sword and the Little Broom) I had written in 1997 for the Lehigh Valley Chamber Orchestra. Russell chose the text by Charles Coffin, a French poet and educator whose hymn verses were often translated into English. My approach toward setting the poem was my usual one; that is, to translate literally the words into music (note the dips into the minor mode for the cave of Bethlehem and the child of poverty.) But most of all, I wanted to capture the sense of joy and peace brought by the arrival of the Christ Child.

Tender and expressive! Two of the most popular settings of the Away in a Manger text give the audience pause to reflect on the meaning of the season. This is one of those beautiful arrangements that is a worthwhile endeavor for bands at every level of ability. Younger groups can work on shaping phrases, balancing chords, blending the ensemble and so much more, while advanced groups have the mastery to explore their own deeply expressive and freely conducted interpretation. For groups in the middle, remember, itâ??s always good to include a performance piece that does not require too much â??note chasingâ? so the subtler aspects of the musical art can be examined and reinforced.Charming!

Mit zwei reizvollen Variationen über das Lied Away in a Manger will der Komponist und Arrangeur James Curnow zum Nachdenken über den eigentlichen Sinn von Weihnachten anregen: die Geburt Christi (englisch Nativityâ??). Mit viel Ausdruck interpretiert, kommt diese musikalische frohe Botschaft in (kirchlichen) Weihnachtskonzerten ganz bestimmt beim Publikum an!

Il existe plus dâ??une quarantaine de mélodies associées au texte Away in a Manger (â??Sur la paille fraîcheâ?). Nativity (La Nativité) développe deux des plus célèbres mélodies datées du XIXe siècle. Tel un peintre, James Curnow nous invite découvrir peu peu le sens profond du mystère de la Nativité. La musique est fluide, expressive et méditative ; une pièce idéale pour éveiller la sensibilité musicale de vos jeunes interprètes.
