Tidings of Comfort and Joy!

Based on “God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen”
Reinforce legato, staccato, and ensemble phrasing with this piece while ushering in the joyous holiday season with musical glee. Opening with a clear unison statement and slowly adding textures and harmonic voices, the work develops to a joyous tutti statement that continues to build in intensity to a glorious conclusion. This arrangement is scored for full orchestra; however, it is also completely playable by string orchestra alone, or with any number of added winds or percussion. This title is available in MakeMusic Cloud.
