Away in a Manger (Gloria, Gloria All Be Blessed!)

One of the most iconic hymns of Christmas arranged by American composer James Nathaniel Holland and expanded with an original new chorus and new text by him. This arrangement/new work contains both traditional melodies (Flow Gently and Away in a Manger). Here presented for soloist (or solo treble instrument in C) SATB choir and full orchestra. A meandering string counter-melody accompanies close choir harmonies and a simple beautiful traditional melody. Sentimental, quiet perfect for choir boy soloist or perhaps children's choir. Intermediate level. Full score in concert pitch and individual parts including vocal parts included. Versatile enough to be used with the other arrangements in this key.Instr: fl12, ob, eh, cl12, bsn12, hrn12, tpt12, trom 12, timp, perc. (glk, tri., hand cym.) harp and strings. Duration: 6 minutes and 49 seconds.
