A Choral Festival of Traditional Carols
Arranged & Orchestrated by Phillip Keveren
Phillip Keveren has crafted a magnificent, orchestra-driven carol medley that will showcase your choir and allow for plenty of congregational participation. Beginning with the poignant plea, "O Come, O Come Emmanuel" and ending with the celebratory "O Come, Let Us Adore Him" your choir and congregation will enjoy the rich tapestry of moods and textures woven by Keveren. You can perform the medley in its entirety (13:15), or consider using one of the two edit points in the piece to sing a shorter medley (10:27 or 7:43). Each vocal part is contained on a separate staff; however, the vocal writing is surprisingly accessible. Your orchestra will also find the instrumental writing to be substantial but quite reasonable in range and difficulty.
