Designed to open a Christmas concert, A Christmas Herald starts with a fanfare that introduces a lyrical theme, which eventually turns out to be a descant to Hark, the Herald Angels Sing, which is subsequently introduced by trombones and euphoniums. The famous carol then gradually transforms back into the fanfare, which closes the work as it began. A Christmas Herald, een openingswerk voor een kerstconcert, begint met een proclamerende fanfare. Deze fanfare introduceert een lyrisch thema, dat uiteindelijk uitmondt in een discant over Hark, the Herald Angels Sing,een melodie die achtereenvolgens wordt gepresenteerd door de trombones en euphoniums. De beroemde carol gaat vervolgens langzaam weer over in de fanfare, waarmee het werk eindigt zoals het begon.A Christmas Herald beginnt mit einer Signalfanfare; diese stellt ein lyrisches Thema vor, das sich bald als Diskant zu Hark, the Herald Angels Sing herausstellt, welches anschliessend von Posaunen und Euphonien prasentiert wird. Dann verwandelt sich das berühmte Weihnachtslied schrittweise zurück in die Fanfare, die das Werk so beendet, wie es begann. Eine wunderbare Eroffnung für ein Weihnachtskonzert! Cette composition est ideale pour debuter ou clore un concert de Noel. A Christmas Herald (Le Messager de Noel) debute avec une fanfare majestueuse qui cede sa place a l'exposition d'un theme lyrique qui forme un contrechant au noel Hark, the Herald Angels Sing (Ecoutez le chant des Anges) introduit par les trombones et l'euphonium. La melodie de ce celebre chant de noel revient progressivement vers la fanfare initiale qui clot l'œuvre sur un ton toujours aussi solennel.

The choir parts are seperately available (order no. AMP 227-050). Hoewel de Engelsen een lange traditie kennen in het zingen van carols zijn veel van de melodieen die er worden gezongen afkomstig van het Europese vasteland - of uit Amerika. Desondanks heeft Philip Sparke een gevarieerde selectievan Engelse melodieen kunnen samenstellen voor dit prachtige 'Festival of Carols' - dat zowel met als zonder koor kan worden uitgevoerd.Weihnachten, wie es heute in England gefeiert wird, ist eine relativ junge Tradition aus dem 19, Jahrhundert, die der deutsche Ehemann von Konigin Victoria mit in seine neue Heimat brachte. Viele gebrauchliche Weihnachtslieder stammen ebenfalls nichtaus England. Philip Sparke gelang es jedoch, eine abwechslungsreiche Sammlung von Liedern aus seiner Heimat zu diesem schonen englischen Weihnachtslieder-Festival zu formen.Die optional einsetzbaren Chorstimmen sind unter der Artikelnummer AMP227-050 separat erhaltlich. << La plupart des traditions de Noel en Angleterre sont relativement recentes. Montee sur le trone en 1837, la reine Victoria (nee de Hanovre) regnera jusqu'a sa mort en 1901. En 1840, elle epousa son cousin, le prince Albert de Saxe-Cobourg-Gotha. Leprince consort, originaire d'Allemagne, importa bon nombre de traditions de Noel allemandes au Royaume-Uni. Ainsi, il fit decouvrir aux Anglais la coutume du sapin et les cartes de Noel, entre autres, contribuant largement au Noel typiquement anglaistel que nous le connaissons aujourd'hui.Bien que les chants de Noel font l'objet d'une longue tradition en Angleterre, de nombreuses melodies que nous chantons proviennent ducontinent europeen ou des Etats-Unis. Je savais bien que le celebrissimeSilent Night (Douce nuit) etait d'origine autrichienne et que Hark, the Herald Angels Sing (Ecoutez le chant des Anges) etait d'origine allemande. Pourtant, quelle ne fut pas ma surprise d'apprendre qu'Away in a Manger (Sur la paillefraiche) ou encore We Three Kings nous venaient des Etats-Unis et que Ding, Dong Merrily on High etait un noel d'origine francaise. Quoiqu'il en soit, j'ai reussi a constituer un canevas de melodies anglaises pour realiser cefestival de chants de Noel. >>Philip SparkeRemarques sur l'interpretation : Cet arrangement est adapte pour une interpretation avec ou sans Chœur. S'il est joue par un Brass Band, les parties vocales seront doublees par des partiesinstrumentales.Les tempi indiques correspondent a une interpretation par un Brass Band seul. Si l'œuvre est donnee avec un Chœur, il est sans doute necessaire de baisser le tempo en fonction du nombre de choristes et de l'acoustique du lieude concert.Les parties de Chœur (en anglais) sont disponibles separement (Ref. : AMP 227-050).

As the title implies, Angel Echoes uses a lot of echo effects throughout, and is based on the interval of a descending perfect fifth. The piece begins with a lush statement of the subtle angel theme, which is used throughout the piece and ultimately as the climactic material later in the work. With teachable material steeped in musicality, this remarkable new work for developing ensembles will not disappoint.
