This Is Christmas

Description :

Every Christmas, we celebrate the birth of a Child. With this breathtaking work, legendary composer Mary McDonald invites us to truly remember what is at the heart of Christmas: this Child, this King, this Savior who was sent to earth to redeem the world. THIS is Christmas. In this cantata, Mary tells the story of Christmas through familiar carols, inspired original melodies, and thoughtful narration. Enhanced with an optional orchestration by Ed Hogan, the work, available for SATB and SAB choirs, may also be accompanied by piano only. The duration is roughly 35 minutes, and audio tracks and other rehearsal aids are available in both physical and digital editions. This year, may we all take a few moments to reflect on the reason we celebrate, for this is great news: This Is Christmas!
