This setting of Mary Wilson's seasonal text by Malcolm Arnold is for unaccompanied mixed chorus. It makes a really attractive addition to any Christmas choral concert.

from Once Upon a Night-From the pages of Pepper Choplin's best-selling Christmas cantata Once Upon a Night comes the jubilant “Raise the Christmas Hallelujah.” This is a festive and exciting anthem to conclude your Christmas Eve orChristmas presentations. Choplin's use of the familiar carol “Bring a Torch Jeannette Isabella” makes it easy to incorporate the congregation in the celebration as the text invites them to “join the heavenlychorus” and welcome the Christ Child. Glorious!

This little piece was commissioned by King's College, Cambridge in 2002 as the then-latest in their celebrated annual Christmastide service of Nine Lessons and Carols for their unique Chapel - it is dedicated to the choir and its director Stephen Cleobury. 'Little', but already a mini-cantata telling the start of the familiar story - Gabriel's Annunciation - praise to the Virgin before she too sings 'my soul doth magnify the Lord': the shepherds a-watching their flocks by night - the angelic chorus in the sky - the fusion of celestial and earthy around the crib holding the baby who is also 'lord of Time and Space'. Here we stop, for now. In fact this is only the first panel of a Christmas Sequence that continues and concludes the whole tale. Seeking out unhackneyed texts, I found such attractive material in the byways that I couldn't resist weaving together from it a composite tapestry, then setting the lot! The words of this section are from the Gospel account, anonymous carols of the 15th, 16th and 17th centuries, Edmund Bolton (1611, 'Sweet music, sweeter far...'), the Gloria from the Mass, a couple of lines from well-loved Anglican Christmas hymns - with neutral link-lines of my own. The music, also, has elements of such wider referencing, which will surely not be lost on the attentive hearer! / Choeur Mixte (SATB) Et Orgue
