For many of us, Christmas is a time of joy and celebration, a time to be spent with family and friends...a festive, happy time. But for others, the same holiday season only serves to underscore the loneliness,pain, and hopelessness of their own lives.In our story, Susanna King's bright spirit and love for life overrides her circumstances; you see, Susanna has been recently diagnosed with cancer. But in spite of bad news and challenging times, she lives with the joy of Christmas in her heart.This is an emotion-filled story, rich with heart. It comes alive with great new songs that are sometimes powerful, sometimes celebratory, sometimes poignant; sometimes happy, sometimes sad; songs that propel the story along while speaking to our hearts with the love language of God's Christmas story...the birth of our Savior, Jesus.Designed to bring your music and drama ministries together, Shepherds and Kings proclaims a strong, vibrant message about the power of love--our love for one another, our love for God, and most importantly, God's desire that ALL would come to know of His great love for us. Share the hope and good news of Christmas with your church and community this year, through your presentation of Shepherds and Kings.Song Titles: Christmas All Over the World (Opener) * Underscore 1 (Susanna Arrives) * Underscore 2 (Mattiello's) * We All Need Christmas * Hopes and Fears (Duet) * Mercy for Me * Everlasting Light * Underscore 3 (Accusations) * Prince of Peace * Underscore 4 (Realization) * Winter White * Shepherds and Kings * Christmas Makes Us One (with We All Need Christmas; Christmas Makes Us One; O Come, All Ye Faithful and Shepherds and Kings).

Ron Mallory presents an outstanding arrangement of the popular While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks tune. Beginning softly to remind us of that starry night long ago, the piece shifts to a more joyous and energetic middle section that expresses the joy of the shepherds as they greet the Christ-child, while the soft ending represents their reflection on all that they had experienced.

Geoffrey Brand's arrangement of Berlioz's Shepherds' Farewell form L'Enfance du Christ is restrained, delicate, and contemplative. In this arrangement for small wind orchestra, the instruments are called upon to display their softer persuasive sounds in order to retain the sensitive nature of this tender music.L'Enfance du Christ (The Childhood of Christ), written between 1850 and 1854, is the nearest that Berlioz got to writing an oratorio. It is in three parts; he called it a 'sacred trilogy.' Throughout, the music is restrained, delicate, and contemplative. In its original version, The Shepherds' Farewell is scored for chorus accompanied by two oboes, two clarinets, and strings. With these selected colors, Berlioz achieves a masterpiece of delicacy and serenity. In this arrangement for small wind orchestra without chorus, the wind instruments are called upon to display their softer persuasive sounds in order to retain the sensitive nature of this tender music. This arrangement may be used with chorus utilizing the original chorus parts. The key is one half tone lower than the original setting.

A sweet text by Kathy Powell joins the sound of a lullaby on the air calling to the shepherds with images of the bright star that led them to the Christ child. Interesting harmonic textures lead each verse to its climax. The accompaniment and choral movement work together in a lovely blend creating a singular motif that depicts the journey of the shepherds and then invokes us to hear the lullaby and find the love of God in the infant Jesus.

As Master of the Queens Music, Sir Peter Maxwell Davies has written a new carol for Her Majesty the Queen each Christmas since his appointment began in 2004. Kings and Shepherds is the fourth and like An Heavenly Song, Wonder Tidings and The Yule-tide Bell, will be published as part of the Schott Royal Collection.Written for the 2008 Christmas service and performed in the Ballroom of Buckingham Palace, Kings and Shepherds is a short traditional setting of Christmas Poem by George Mackey Brown, a poet who lived near to Maxwell Davies on the Orkney Islands. A wonderful addition to the carol repertoire and ideal for amateur choirs looking to programme new pieces.
