Christmas as celebrated in England is a relatively newtradition dating from the time of Queen Victoria. Herhusband Prince Albert was from Germany and he broughtmany German Christmas traditions with him, including theChristmas tree and Christmascards, and even carols such asHark, the Herald Angels Sing. Philip Sparke has however useda varied selection of English melodies to arrange into his?Festival of Carols?.The choir parts are seperately available (order no. AMP 227-050). Hoewel de Engelsen een lange traditie kennen in het zingen van carols zijn veel van de melodieën die er worden gezongen afkomstig van het Europese vasteland - of uit Amerika. Desondanks heeft Philip Sparke een gevarieerde selectievan Engelse melodieën kunnen samenstellen voor dit prachtige ‘Festival of Carols’ - dat zowel met als zonder koor kan worden uitgevoerd.Weihnachten, wie es heute in England gefeiert wird, ist eine relativ junge Tradition aus dem 19, Jahrhundert, die der deutsche Ehemann von Königin Victoria mit in seine neue Heimat brachte. Viele gebräuchliche Weihnachtslieder stammen ebenfalls nichtaus England. Philip Sparke gelang es jedoch, eine abwechslungsreiche Sammlung von Liedern aus seiner Heimat zu diesem schönen englischen Weihnachtslieder-Festival“ zu formen.Die optional einsetzbaren Chorstimmen sind unter der Artikelnummer AMP227-050 separat erhältlich. « La plupart des traditions de Noël en Angleterre sont relativement récentes. Montée sur le trône en 1837, la reine Victoria (née de Hanovre) régnera jusqu’ sa mort en 1901. En 1840, elle épousa son cousin, le prince Albert de Saxe-Cobourg-Gotha. Leprince consort, originaire d’Allemagne, importa bon nombre de traditions de Noël allemandes au Royaume-Uni. Ainsi, il fit découvrir aux Anglais la coutume du sapin et les cartes de Noël, entre autres, contribuant largement au Noël typiquement anglaistel que nous le connaissons aujourd’hui.Bien que les chants de Noël font l’objet d’une longue tradition en Angleterre, de nombreuses mélodies que nous chantons proviennent ducontinent européen ou des États-Unis. Je savais bien que le célébrissimeSilent Night (Douce nuit) était d’origine autrichienne et que Hark, the Herald Angels Sing (Écoutez le chant des Anges) était d’origine allemande. Pourtant, quelle ne fut pas ma surprise d’apprendre qu’Away in a Manger (Sur la paillefraîche) ou encore We Three Kings nous venaient des États-Unis et que Ding, Dong Merrily on High était un noël d’origine française. Quoiqu’il en soit, j’ai réussi constituer un canevas de mélodies anglaises pour réaliser cefestival de chants de Noël. »Philip SparkeRemarques sur l’interprétation : Cet arrangement est adapté pour une interprétation avec ou sans Chœur. S’il est joué par un Brass Band, les parties vocales seront doublées par des partiesinstrumentales.Les tempi indiqués correspondent une interprétation par un Brass Band seul. Si l’œuvre est donnée avec un Chœur, il est sans doute nécessaire de baisser le tempo en fonction du nombre de choristes et de l’acoustique du lieude concert.Les parties de Chœur (en anglais) sont disponibles séparément (Réf. : AMP 227-050).

Christmas Carol Trilogy is a perfect opening or closing piece for the holiday concert. This arrangement incorporates three of the most famous traditional carols: O Come, All Ye Faithful, What Child is This? and Joy to the World. Michael J. Miller has written a band arrangement based on this choral arrangement (YPS223). Miller's arrangement can either serve as a band accompaniment or as a stand-alone band arrangement. Choral and band directors can now have a piece for holiday concerts where both can play and sing together!.Christmas Carol Trilogy was arranged because it is often difficult to find a medley of standard Christmas/Holiday carols to use as an opening or closing piece for the holiday concert. Choral and band directors can now have a piece to close a holiday concert where both can play and sing together! It was a joy to arrange a choral arrangement that incorporates three of the most famous traditional carols: O Come, All Ye Faithful, What Child is This? and Joy to the World. I am so pleased that Michael J. Miller wrote a band arrangement based on this choral arrangement (YPS223). Miller's arrangement can either serve as a band accompaniment or as a stand-alone band arrangement. I hope you enjoy singing Christmas Carol Trilogy as much as I enjoyed writing it!

Notes to the Conductor This adaptation of Christmas Carol Trilogy was arranged to accompany the choral arrangement of the same title by Russell Robinson. It can be played with Robinson's vocal arrangements with band and chorus together or as a stand-alone piece for band. If performed together with a chorus, it is recommended that the performers play one to two dynamic levels lower than written (depending on the size of the chorus) so as not to overpower the singers. Please see the chart below for further explanation. Written Dynamic (To be used if band alone) Large Chorus (1 dynamic lower) Small Chorus (2 dynamics lower) F f ff P F f p P F Another possibility for performance is for a small group of wind instruments with chorus. Here, performers would play the written dynamics. Below are a few recommended chamber ensembles that would work with a variety of choruses, though there are several other alternatives. In any case, the conductor should be careful to choose a set of instruments that is both balanced in register (soprano, alto, tenor, bass) and in role (melody, countermelody, bass line, etc.) Option 1 (Woodwind Sextet) Flute (Oboe) Clarinet 1 Clarinet 2 Alto Saxophone Tenor Saxophone (Bassoon) Baritone Saxophone (Bass Clarinet) Option 2 (Brass Quintet) Trumpet 1 Trumpet 2 Horn Trombone (Baritone) Tuba (Baritone Saxophone) A final option is to perform with one player per instrumental part. In all instances, the conductor should pay close attention to the balance of the percussion instruments.Notes to the Conductor This adaptation of Christmas Carol Trilogy was arranged to accompany the choral arrangement of the same title by Russell Robinson.
