CGA999 How Far Is It to Bethlehem?
Description
This lovely arrangement of the traditional English carol highlights the beauty and wonder of the poetic text by Frances Chesterton. Although much of the anthem is written for unison voices, vocal harmony in the second stanza and the concluding 'coda-like' section provide a rich, lush addition to the familiar melody. Excellent piece for experienced children's choirs or youth/adult treble voices.
Voicing: Three part treble with piano
Composer: Traditional English
Arranger: Ken Berg
Text: Frances Chesterton
