Bring a lush, orchestral warmth to your holiday program with this beautiful and lyrical String Quintet arrangement of "Away in a Manger," now featuring chords for extra versatility and set in the resonant key of G Major.

Expertly arranged by Jps Arrangements, this version of the beloved Christmas classic is specifically designed for Easy-Intermediate string ensembles. Set in the brilliant key of G Major, this edition utilizes the full range of the string family—including the Double Bass for a deep, professional foundation—and includes harmonic chords (cifras) for accompaniment or rehearsal reference.

Why this String Quintet edition is a holiday essential:

Includes Chords (Cifras): Perfect for ensembles performing with a rhythm section or for directors providing harmonic support, making it a highly flexible arrangement for modern church services and events.
Full String Orchestra Sound: The addition of the Double Bass provides a rich, symphonic-like depth that a standard quartet cannot match.
Resonant Key (G Major): Highly idiomatic for string instruments, utilizing open strings to achieve a bright, open, and professional sonority.
Classical Chorale Style: Features lush harmonies and smooth voice leading, capturing the traditional "cradle song" feel with a balanced and powerful string sound.
Easy-Intermediate Level: Carefully voiced to be accessible for student groups, school orchestras, and community ensembles, ensuring a high-quality sound with manageable technical demands.
