Christmas Arrangements

By Karen Palmer

1NT - Deck The Halls

Traditional carol with a slight twist! The first verse has alternative lyrics where you can insert the name of your chorus/choir. The second verse is the usual first verse.


1NT - I Saw Three Ships

Consisting of the first three verses only, this is a short but very sweet arrangement starting with the baris and basses giving the beat whilst the tenors and leads unison the first verse. The second verse picks up with the basses and baris adding a little more to the beat and the tenors and leads dueting. The final verse is with all four parts singing the words. This song will be upgraded with more verses at a later date.


2NE - Mistletoe And Wine

by Keith Strachan, Leslie Stewart and Jeremy Paul. Made number one for Cliff Richard back in the 80s, this stirring Christmas song allows the singers to really get into the Christmas Spirit.



2NE - Walking In The Air

by Howard Blake, 1982. Used in the beautiful story of The Snowman and made famous by Aled Jones. This arrangement has the leads singing the melody whilst the harmony parts create the pulse.
Available on TCD 005.
