Program Notes

The lovely choral beginning features the familiar carol Good Christian Men, Rejoice, and sets the groundwork for this unique work. The piece features soli opportunity for bassoon and trombone, followed by a flute, clarinet and horn trio. Modulations, tempo changes, and meter changes add a unique flair. Temple blocks are a must. Programmable for any time of the year, but especially joyful for the holiday season.
