Holiday Selections for SSAA
Dearly loved holiday favorites, thoughtfully arranged for upper voices, with a variety of accompaniment options, from lush full orchestrations to the intimate simplicity of guitar.
Silent Night, arr. Ryan James Brandau
A lush, glowing setting of this beloved carol, with lovely moving lines for all voices parts. Optional solo or soli in second verse.
Auld Lang Syne, arr. Ryan James Brandau
A warm and especially moving arrangement of the Scottish ballad for New Year’s Eve, which combines the beautiful but lesser known second tune with the well known first tune. Perfect as a penultimate piece or encore.
O Holy Night, arr. Ryan James Brandau
A sweeping setting of Adolphe Adam’s beloved Cantique de Noël, in English translation, with a variety of accompaniments
Wassail, arr. Ryan James Brandau
A an irresistibly jolly setting of the Gloucester Wassail, with a vigorous (but playable!) fiddle-inspired accompaniment that builds throughout the arrangement and finally bursts into a spirited jig. Loads of fun for orchestra, chorus, and audience alike, this one is sure to have everyone’s toes tapping! Works well as a run-up to Auld Lang Syne.
Still, Still, Still Silent Night, arr. Ryan James Brandau
A gorgeous, serene arrangement that combines two much loved Austrian/German carols, first in alternation and then in counterpoint. Optional solo in the second verse of Silent Night for a soprano, treble, soli, or treble chorus. A perfect centerpiece for a carols service or concert.
