About this arrangement

SATB choir, congregation, organ SKU: LO.65-1957R SATB Choir and Congregation with Organ. Composed by Jonathan Willcocks. Choral, cantatas. Christmas, Sacred. Choral score. Roger Dean Publishing #65/1957R. Published by Roger Dean Publishing (LO.65-1957R). UPC: 000308072389.Based on the format of the traditional service held each Christmas Eve in the Chapel of King's College, Cambridge, England, this newly-composed work incorporates seventeen carols within its eight scriptural lessons, with the congregation participating in more than half of them. The composer has often melded two carols together, creating an imaginative new texture for both, particularly when infused with congregational support. The ultimate result is a compelling new service in a time-honored format featuring the unique compositional talents of one of Britain's best known composers.
