The great English composers Ralph Vaughan Williams and Gustav Holst wrote many Christmas choral works and carol harmonizations that continue to enrich our worship services, concerts, and family celebrations each December. Their readily identifiable approach to this music draws on their important work in the folk song revival, and they brought many previously forgotten folk carols into sacred use. These organ arrangements by Douglas E. Wagner turn some of this music into organ solos, with a wealth of preludes, offertories, and postludes.

Optional Flute and oboe.(Or any two C instruments: parts included).Christmas/Medium. An exuberant medley of carols which truly sparkles with the color and interplay of the optional solo instruments. Even though the instrumental parts are substantive, this delightful composition also works beautifully with bells alone. Ringers will especially appreciate the ease of reading uncluttered pages, scored specifically for the number of bells]in their set. This five-minute gem quotes passages from the ever-popular anthem, CHRISTMAS DAY, by Gustav Holst, and includes the SUSSEX CAROL, IN DULCI JUBILO, THE FIRST NOWELL, and GOD REST YOU MERRY, GENTLEMEN.
