Christmas choral piece (SAB or SATB) with instrumentation
-
Friends,
One of my choirs is looking for a choral piece for our Xmas concert, scored for SA(T)B voices, piano/organ and a variety of instruments (violin, cello, clarinet, maybe something else).
Suggestions?
-
"Nativity Carol" by John Rutter is a possibility, although I am having trouble orienting my mind toward Christmas at this time. I am planning on doing the Rutter.Thanked by 1Heath

Some of the other John Rutter pieces that are scored for keyboard and optional instrumentation include Candlelight Carol, Christmas Lullaby, and Star Carol, among others.Thanked by 1Heath
