The wind is cold, the branches bare, but hearts are warm and bright. Despite the chill of December, it'' all about hope, peace, and kindling kindness. As you'd expect from a round, a simple melody easily stacks into a complete choral texture. Even better, the conservative-range tune ensures a good fit for all voices. Groups of any age will master the canonic form and enjoy delivering the heartfelt, non-holiday message.

Canon Noel combines the iconic Pachelbel theme with graceful melodies from The First Noel and Hark! the Herald Angels Sing. This lyrical setting in D major includes just a little shifting in the Bass and easy high-3 finger patterns in Violin II and Viola. Providing a wonderful study in legato playing with slurs in 3/4, the simple scale-based motion and frequent doubling will give the developing ensemble a full, rich sound as all sections get to play melodic material. An accessible and beautiful winter concert selection with a classical touch!
