Various Arrangers (ed. Bob Chilcott/Susan Knight): World Carols for Choirs - Upper Voices (SSAA Songbook)
Be the first to review this product
"This ground-breaking collection of upper-voice carols contains original pieces and arrangements from 27 countries and embraces the choral traditions of cultures worldwide. Bob Chilcott and Susan Knight have selected pieces to appeal to a wide range of young and adult upper-voice choirs, written by both established and emerging composers.
Some composers have arranged traditional carols from their own cultures - among them Javier Busto from the Basque Country, Eleanor Daley from Canada, and Carl Rutti from Switzerland. Other composers - from Australia, Iceland, Nigeria, Poland and South Africa among other countries - have written new carols, each with a vivid sense of style or place. Pronunciation guides are provided for choirs who wish to sing the original non-English texts, while English singing translations make the pieces accessible to all choirs. This collection embraces a wide array of styles, from the rhythmic and playful to the expressive and hymn-like, and will refresh the repertoire of choirs all over the world." (159pp. Softcover, 2006)
