Christmas Spirituals for Choirs Reviews

These are high-class arrangements . . . The arrangements themselves are consistently pleasurable, and many are a joy. Ken Burton . . . contributes five of the 12 numbers. His work seems to go from strength to strength, always writing from inside the style, never doing a fussy or flashy thing where a simple thing will do, consistently providing both an element aof surprise and emotional uplift where needed . . . Multi-talented Roderick Williams provides a different style of arranging entirely - clever, self-aware, tricksy, virtuoso . . . The book is attractively presented, not too bulky, and the music, even where quite complex, is clearly laid out and easy to read. * Matthew Greenall, The Singer Oct 04 *
Since Ken Burton and Bob Chilcott have both been involved in writing and arranging music for this book, it is no wonder that the result is a collection of fresh and exciting songs . . . Any choir looking for something lively, challenging and a bit different this Christmas should definitely take a look at this collection of songs. Highly recommended. * Church Music Quarterly, September 04 *

And His name shall be called ; Away in a manger ; Behold that star ; Children, go where I send thee ; Go, tell it on the mountain ; Mary had a baby ; Mighty wonder ; Remember, O thou man ; Rise up, shepherd, and follow ; Star of the night ; The Virgin Mary had a baby boy ; Wasn't that a mighty day!
