Each year the BBC Music Magazine commissions a brand-new Christmas Carol for their readers and, when Grace-Evangeline Mason was invited to compose the 2021 carol, she decided to write and set her own poem titled A Winter Carol. The words, which depict snowy scenery and starry allusions to heaven and earth, also include a modern twist as the composer dreams of walking home at Christmas time under the warm glow of the street lamps all covered in a silver frost. Written in three verses with a short refrain in between repeating the word “winter,†the piece is a small, celebratory reflection of Christmas time. The carol begins in quiet consideration before opening up to feel hearty and warm. After a playful midsection, the work returns to a softer final coda, which is reminiscentof the opening.

Charac terized by a French dialect, the Cajun people have an equally distinct musical tradition. This lovely arrangement captures the spirit and enthusiasm of these proud people. Presented in two separate movements, the diversity of the Cajun music heritage is pronounced as your students play Tout Un Beau Soir En Me Promenant (On a Beautiful Evening While Out Walking) and Danse de Mardi Gras. (2:05).
