Composed by Peter Warlock. Arranged by John Ivor Holland. This edition: pdf, streaming. 20th Century, Christmas, Holiday, Religious, Sacred. 22 pages. John Ivor Holland #1314673. Published by John Ivor Holland (A0.1754232).
"Bethlehem Down" is a Christmas carol for SATB choir composed in 1927 by British composer Peter Warlock - the pseudonym of Philip Arnold Heseltine. It is set to a poem written by journalist and poet Bruce Blunt. Warlock and Blunt wrote the carol to finance an "immortal carouse" (a heavy bout of drinking) over Christmas in 1927. The pair submitted the carol to The Daily Telegraph's annual Christmas carol contest and won. It is characterised by modal harmony with chromatic inflections. The musicologist Barry Smith described "Bethlehem Down" as the finest of all of Warlock's choral works, whilst music journalist Alexandra Coghlan writes that the piece is Warlock's "unquestioned carol masterpiece", and is particularly impressive given the fact its creation arose from the simple need for money and alcohol. This arrangement allows for many different flexible combinations of wind, brass and strings.
