CGRP2 Hark the Herald Angels Sing (Reproducible Parts)
Description
Recording performed by the Allegro Children's Chorus Based on the text of the Antiphon for Christmas Day and Charles Wesley's stirring text based on the incarnation, this concertato is most fiting as a Call to Worship and opening hymn for Christmas worship. In addition, it may be sung as a carol response to the reading of Luke 2 as it is found within the context of a Lessons and Carols Service or as a festival work at the opening or close of a Christmas Concert. The arrangement provides an opportunity for the many and varied musical resources of a parish to be united in a single offering of praise and adoration during the Christmas season. Also available sold separately: Full Score (CGA901), Choral Score (CGA900)
Composer: Michael Burkhardt (Incorporating MENDELSSOHN by Felix Mendelssohn, 1809-1847)
Text Author: Charles Wesley
