Choral Choir (SATB) - Level 5 - Digital Download
SKU: A0.887974
Composed by Graham Yates. Christmas,Contemporary. Octavo. 16 pages. Graham Yates #5957557. Published by Graham Yates (A0.887974).
For SATB choir, Tenor soloist, piano accompaniment and musical spoons (or aux. percussion).
Of all the self-indulgent ecstatic Renaissance poems... this one must be the worst/best. The writer, a member of the Society of Jesus (Jesuits), imagines a literal Christ baby in the woods who is at one moment frying with fire and at the next melting into a pool to wash the sins of the world (or assuage the guilt of the narrator). Only at this moment does the narrator "realize" that it is Christmas day and the reader is left to ponder their devotional obligation to the poor. Apart from being a monumental target for parody, the text demanded to be set to gothic "Halloweeny" music. Expect unrepentant stealing from Gesu bambino and a nod to Handel’s French overture style. (Feel free to double-dot this section if you so desire.) There is also an Afro-cuban "montuno" piano solo whilst the baby Jesus burns. Because of course there is.
This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global
self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
