Sing We Now of Christmas

Arr. by Joseph M. Martin

From the cantata Morning Star, this choral "tour de force" is a dazzling display of both choral and piano virtuosity. Two time-honored tunes, 'Noel Nouvelet' and 'Ukranian Bell Carol', are seamlessly woven together in a tapestry of great color and texture. This "dynamic duo" reminds us of the joy that acconpanied the birth of Jesus and beckons the world to join the greater 'Noel', and the festival orchstral option lifts the concert-worthy oncore to dizzying heights.
