For thy Courts Above - Ed Huckeby

An expressive fantasy based on the hymn, "Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing". Huckeby's sonorous and richly harmonized setting is an excellent vehicle for expanding your band's ability to perform in a warm legato style while gaining an eloquent program piece. A truly impressive and moving work!

For Unto Us - Georg Friedrich Händel

Handel's masterpiece "The Messiah" is perfect for holiday concerts, and the chorus For Unto Us A Child Is Born is one of the best known.

A dignified and substantial choice for your concert!

For Unto You Is Born This Day! - James L. Hosay

A magnificent offering for your Christmas performance! James L. Hosay has taken the story of the birth of Christ, according to the Gospel of Luke, and set it to heart lifting music. A stunning and unforgettable performance can be had with a chorus or with a narrator. Either way, this piece will add to the festive mood of your Holiday concert and help your audience feel the true spirit of Christmas. If you do a concert where a chorus performs half and a concert band performs half, consider programming FOR UNTO YOU IS BORN THIS DAY as a grand finale. If your performance stage is a bit cramped for that many musicians all at once, perhaps having the chorus surround the audiencewill work for you. The "surround-sound" effect can be wonderful.
