THE HERALD ANGELS
A Christmas Fanfare
Denne julefanfaren bygger på Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy / William H. Cummings sitt berømte tema til den engelske julesangen Høyr kor englar syng frå sky (Hark, the Herald Angels Sing).
Teksten ble skrevet av Charles Wesley ca 100 år før melodien kom til.
Dette arrangementet egner seg godt til å åpne en julekonsert med, og det bør spilles i en sangbar, men likevel majestetisk stil.Arrangementet kan enkelt bearbeides slik at man kan ha med kor.
