String Quartet Cello,String Quartet,Viola,Violin - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1510076 Composed by Benjamin Russell Hanby. Arranged by James M. Guthrie. 19th Century,Chamber,Christmas,Historic,Traditional. 15 pages. Jmsgu3 #1085258. Published by jmsgu3 (A0.1510076). Up On The Housetop holds significant importance in American Christmas music as it is recognized as one of the earliest secular Christmas songs, explicitly focusing on the figure of Santa Claus. Composed by Benjamin Russell Hanby in 1864, it is often cited as the first Christmas song to center around Santa, a theme likely inspired by Clement C. Moore's poem A Visit from St. Nicholas, also known as The Night Before Christmas.Historical ContextHanby, born in 1833 and died at a young age in 1867, was a minister and composer who faced challenges in his career due to his progressive views on music and his opposition to slavery. During a difficult period, he wrote Up On The Housetop as part of his efforts to support his family. This song and others he composed reflect his innovative spirit and contribution to holiday music.Cultural ImpactThe song has been embraced in popular culture, recorded by numerous artists, including Gene Autry, and remains a staple in Christmas celebrations. Its catchy melody and festive lyrics evoke the joy of Christmas, depicting Santa Claus delivering gifts to children, which has helped solidify Santa's place in American holiday traditions.ConclusionOverall, Up On The Housetop is a beloved Christmas carol and a pivotal work in the evolution of Christmas music in the United States. It marks the transition towards a more secular celebration of the holiday centered around Santa Claus. Its legacy continues to influence how Christmas is celebrated and experienced today.

Chamber,Christmas,Historic,Standards,Traditional. 14 pages. Jmsgu3 #1066516. Published by jmsgu3 (A0.1489644). Deck the Halls is a traditional Christmas carol with a rich history and cultural significance:Origin and Melody: The melody of Deck the Halls is derived from a Welsh tune called Nos Galan, which dates back to at least the 16th century. The carol's melody was initially associated with Welsh New Year's Eve celebrations.Lyrics: The English lyrics were written by Scottish musician Thomas Oliphant in 1862. These lyrics were published alongside the original Welsh lyrics in a collection of Welsh melodies.Cultural Context: Originally, Nos Galan was a competitive Welsh drinking song. Participants would take turns singing verses around a fire during New Year's Eve gatherings. The transition from a New Year's song to a Christmas carol occurred when the English lyrics were adapted to focus on Christmas themes.Meaning and Usage: The phrase deck the halls means to decorate for Christmas, traditionally with boughs of holly and other festive adornments. The term deck in this context means to decorate or adorn, and it is derived from the Middle Dutch word dekken, meaning to cover.Variations and Adaptations: Over time, the lyrics have been adapted in various ways, including changing the words to reflect different cultural or religious contexts, such as replacing Christmas with Yule or Yuletide.Overall, Deck the Halls is a beloved carol that combines elements of Welsh tradition with Victorian-era English lyrics, celebrating the festive spirit of the holiday season.

String Quartet Cello,String Quartet,Viola,Violin - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1504108 Composed by English Traditional. Arranged by James M. Guthrie. Chamber,Christmas,Historic,Standards,Traditional. 15 pages. Jmsgu3 #1079563. Published by jmsgu3 (A0.1504108). The 12 Days of Christmas is significant for its cultural and religious implications. This period, also known as Twelvetide, spans from December 25 (Christmas Day) to January 6 (Epiphany), marking the time between the birth of Jesus and the arrival of the Magi. Historical ContextThe tradition of the 12 days was formalized by the Council of Tours in 567, which proclaimed this time a sacred season, emphasizing the importance of celebration and reflection during this period. Each day is associated with various saints and religious observances, making it a time of spiritual significance for many Christians.The Carol and Its MeaningThe well-known carol The Twelve Days of Christmas lists a series of increasingly extravagant gifts given on each of the twelve days. Although it is often perceived as a simple festive song, there are theories about its deeper meanings. One popular but debunked theory suggests that the gifts symbolize elements of the Christian faith, serving as a secret catechism for Catholics during times of persecution. However, this interpretation lacks substantial historical evidence and is considered more of a myth than fact. Cultural PracticesCulturally, the 12 Days of Christmas have evolved into various traditions, including gift-giving, feasting, and festive gatherings. In some cultures, gifts are exchanged on January 6, celebrated as Three Kings Day, while others may celebrate throughout twelve days. The carol likely originated as a memory game for children, intended to be fun and engaging rather than a severe religious text. In summary, the 12 Days of Christmas represent a blend of religious significance, historical tradition, and cultural celebration, making it an enduring aspect of the Christmas season.

Its distinctive pat-a-pan rhythm, which imitates the sound of a drum, has made it memorable and popular.Cultural InfluencePatapan has had a significant influence on other Christmas music:It may have inspired the more famous carol The Little Drummer Boy. While this connection is debated, the similarities in theme and rhythm are notable.Various artists and composers have adapted and reinterpreted the carol's rhythm, demonstrating its versatility and lasting appeal.Lyrical SignificanceThe lyrics of Patapan are noteworthy for several reasons: They feature characters Guillô and Robin, which are common in old French carols.The carol celebrates the act of caroling itself, making it a meta-commentary on the Christmas music tradition. It incorporates themes of reconciliation between God and humanity, reflecting important Christian theological concepts.Musical EducationPatapan is often used in music education and performances: Its simple rhythm makes it accessible for children to learn and perform.The carol is frequently arranged for various vocal and instrumental ensembles, as evidenced by its availability through multiple music publishers.In conclusion, Patapan is important not only as a beloved Christmas carol but also as a piece of cultural heritage that has influenced other music, reflected theological ideas, and continued to be performed and adapted for over three centuries.

Chamber,Christmas,Historic,Standards,Traditional. 9 pages. Jmsgu3 #1073376. Published by jmsgu3 (A0.1496962). In the Bleak Midwinter is an essential and beloved Christmas carol with several notable aspects.Origins and AuthorshipThe carol originated as a poem titled A Christmas Carol, written by Christina Rossetti, a prominent English poet, in 1872. Rossetti was known for combining deep Christian faith with rich artistic sensibility in her works. Musical SettingsThe poem was set to music multiple times, with two versions becoming particularly popular: Gustav Holst's hymn tune Cranham in 1906, which is more straightforward and suitable for congregational singing. Harold Darke's more complex choral setting from 1911 was named the best Christmas carol in a 2008 poll of choirmasters and choral experts.Poetic and Theological SignificanceThe carol is notable for its stark imagery, contrasting the harsh winter landscape with the divine incarnation—the paradoxical juxtaposition of earthly elements with the ineffable nature of Christ's birth. Profound theological insights are conveyed through simple language—reflection on the meaning of gift-giving about Christ's birth.Cultural ImpactIn the Bleak Midwinter has become a beloved part of Christmas traditions. Choirs perform it widely, and various artists record it.Many music experts consider The carol one of the greatest Christmas songs. Its imagery and themes have inspired reflection on rest, renewal, and the deeper meaning of the winter season. The enduring popularity of In the Bleak Midwinter stems from its beautiful blend of evocative poetry, rich theological content, and dynamic musical settings, making it a cherished part of Christmas celebrations for many.

Tu scendi dalle stelle is an essential and beloved Italian Christmas carol with several notable aspects: Origins and ComposerThe carol was written in 1732 by Saint Alphonsus Liguori, a prominent Neapolitan priest, philosopher, and founder of the Redemptorist missionary order. Liguori composed the melody and original lyrics while staying at a convent in Deliceto, Italy. Popularity and TraditionIt has become one of Italy's most popular and widely sung Christmas carols. For many Italian families, singing this carol on Christmas Eve is a beloved tradition.Musical Style and PerformanceThe carol was written in the musical style of a pastorale. While it has been arranged in various ways, it is traditionally associated with the zampogna, a large Italian bagpipe instrument. Lyrical ContentThe lyrics poetically describe Jesus descending from the stars as the King of Heaven to be born in a cold, frosty cave. They reflect on the poverty and humility of Christ's birth and emphasize the sacrificial love shown through the Incarnation. Cultural ImpactTu scendi dalle stelle has had a lasting influence on Italian Christmas traditions and culture. It has been recorded by many artists and adapted into different musical arrangements over the years. The carol has also inspired variations and arrangements by classical composers like Domenico Scarlatti and Ottorino Respighi. In summary, Tu scendi dalle stelle is significant as a cherished Italian Christmas tradition, a reflection of Catholic theology and devotion, and an enduring piece of sacred music composed by an important religious figure.

Chamber,Christmas,Historic,Holiday,Traditional. 14 pages. Jmsgu3 #1068354. Published by jmsgu3 (A0.1491680). I Saw Three Ships is a traditional English Christmas carol that has gained popularity for its melodic simplicity and festive themes. Here are some key points about its significance:Historical ContextOrigins: The earliest known printed version of I Saw Three Ships dates back to the 17th century, with a notable publication by William Sandys in 1833. The song was likely known earlier under As I Sat On a Sunny Bank, particularly popular in Cornwall.Cultural Relevance: The carol reflects a period when maritime themes were prominent in English culture, coinciding with the Age of Exploration. This context made the imagery of ships particularly resonant for audiences of the time.Symbolism and InterpretationThe Ships: The lyrics describe three ships arriving on Christmas Day, which has led to various interpretations. One common belief is that the ships symbolize the three vessels that carried the relics of the Magi to Cologne Cathedral in the 12th century. Alternatively, they may represent the camels used by the Magi, often referred to as ships of the desert due to their role in transporting the wise men to Bethlehem.Bethlehem's Geography: The song mentions ships sailing into Bethlehem, which raises questions, as the nearest body of water is the Dead Sea, about 20 miles away. This discrepancy has prompted interpretations that focus on the symbolic rather than literal meaning of the ships.Musical LegacyPopularity: I Saw Three Ships has been embraced by various artists across genres, with notable recordings by musicians such as Sting, Glen Campbell, and Sufjan Stevens. Its enduring appeal makes it a staple in Christmas music repertoires.Lyric Variations: Different song versions have emerged over the years, reflecting local traditions and interpretations. Some variations even change the context from Christmas to other celebrations, demonstrating the carol's flexibility in cultural contexts.In summary, I Saw Three Ships is significant as a cherished Christmas carol and a cultural artifact that encapsulates historical maritime themes, religious symbolism, and the evolution of folk music traditions.

Published by Ivan Brand (A0.485344). This arrangement presents this well-known Chrismas or Advent hymn in a new and refreshing style that is so beautifully enabled by a string quartet. The piece begins with an anticipatory style reflective of the lyrics O Come, O Come, Emmanuel.... It then builds to a celebratory style consistent with the refrain's Rejoice! Rejoice!. Then, as the piece closes, it calms again to a warm and introspective style similar to the beginning. This piece is well suited for church and school quartets or larger string ensembles.

Away in a Manger By W J Kirkpatrick (Trad, GB) 3' 00'' A new arrangement of this classic Christmas lullaby. It's roughly in the style of early 18th-century counterpoint, with gentle dissonances like the crumple-crunch of fresh snow underfoot or the spices in your mulled wine. Bajuschki Baku (Trad, Caucasus) 2' 10'' (Hush-a-bye a-bye) A lullaby from Caucasus in a revised arrangement. Shepherds' Farewell By H Berlioz 3' 05'' (L'adieu des Bergers a la Sainte Familie) From L' Enfance du Christ (The Childhood of Christ) almost unaltered. Silent Night By FX Gruber, J Mohr (Trad, Austria) 2' 20'' (Stille Nacht) Another classic Christmas lullaby in new arrangement, which starts off reflecting the bleakness of the original performance in Austria but warms up. Makes you glad to be indoors! The level is on the intermediate. There are some flageolets (harmonics). Enjoy!

Mark Bisson #3628443. Published by Mark Bisson (A0.900887).

Suitable as part of a programme for more experienced High School students or as music played in the background of a Christmas event.
