Weâ� ��™re counting down the days to Christmas…that most wonderful time of the year! And somehow, it always feels so much longer than the actual 364 days it takes for that special day to arrive…that one day each year when family and friends come together to celebrate the joy, peace, hope, and love that came into our world through the birth of our Savior!

What better way to bring all that anticipation into focus and usher in the season than with the new Christmas musical from Marty Parks and Word Music & Church Resources, Waiting for Christmas! This delightful, nostalgic, and heartfelt musical comes to you wrapped in Marty Park’s signature format… Large-Print-No-Repeats -Perfect-For-Any-Choir! More specifically, these specially designed musicals from Marty come your way perfect for Senior Adult Choirs, yet perfectly appropriate for every choir!

Featuring a heartwarming story of a letter found in an old family Bible, this musical introduces a young girl named Sarah writing to her “Nana”, expressing her joy and delight as she anticipates the holiday and, once again, getting the family together at Christmastime. The memories of past Christmases combined with the expectation of precious new memories yet to be made create a vivid backdrop for sharing the real reason for the season…Jesus!

This cycle of carols, to the poetry of Christina Rossetti, was assembled piecemeal over a number of years, gradually acquiring a larger dramatic and harmonic arch shape as new settings were added. I was particularly attracted to Rossetti's conflation of the dark, fallow winter landscape with that of the soul waiting for salvation. The cycle traces the long nights of watchfulness before Christmas, with the great event constantly deferred, only glimpsed periodically in different visions before the music turns inward again to contemplation. The opening carol embodies this spirit, with passages of diffuse, roving harmony interspersed with meditative, lyrical pedals, calling out the night watch and dreaming of a far-off summer of the spirit. Earth Grown Old is a kind of double carol, setting two complete poems, their lines at first presented separately as a still, expectant chorale and a jubilant dance, then progressively interwoven toward a fervent climax before once again receding into quiet. In the bleak mid-winter, which sets a highly compressed version of Rossetti's original poem, presents an enfeebled landscape frozen in time, in dire need of deliverance. A gentle melody weaves its way through static drones, broken by an angels' chorus announcing the joy to come. Love Came Down at Christmas ends the waiting, with its gently falling, overlapping lines building to a final revelation, the mystery of Christmas at last made real.
