Your next Christmas concert can be transformed into a moving shared community experience!The collection contains arrangements of five well-known carols along with a newly written Gloria. Carsten Klomp has arranged individual verses as variations with differing scoring, so that the songs can be performed together by congregation (melody), choir (descant, or optionally as a solo or an instrumental) and organ. Depending on requirements a version for a one to two voice choir with organ or simply for congregation and organ is also possible. The organ parts for each song are appealing, with a prelude and an accompaniment which varies from verse to verse. The choir can be single or mixed voice (medium to higher range); a children’s or youth choir could also be included. The texts of the songs are presented in two variant forms, following the German Protestant and Catholic hymnbooks, so that the songs can be used in both Protestant and Catholic contexts.- Christmas carols for choir and congregation- Light and effective- Animates the audience to sing along.

** This is the music collection consisting of individual octavos shrinkwrapped together.   The third volume in this popular series, Revival III features arrangements of fourteen familiar Christmas carols for contemporary ensembles. Christmas carols, like many traditional hymns, are often arranged for four-part choir and organ. With this collection, Tony Alonso focuses instead on the needs of the piano- or guitar-based ensemble, creating accessible carol arrangements for SAB voices, piano, and guitar. Also included is an optional alternate harmonization for the final stanza of each piece featuring a soprano descant. Although these arrangements can be utilized as choral anthems, they are truly intended to lead and inspire congregational song. They are compatible with the texts found in GIA’s hymnals and yet can be edited easily to agree with the version of the carol most familiar to the assembly.
