What Child is This? (Concert Band with Optional Choir - Score and Parts) - Noble & Willcocks

What Child Is This? is a Christmas carol whose lyrics were written by William Chatterton Dix, in 1865. At the time of composing the carol, Dix worked as an insurance company manager and had been struck by a severe illness. While recovering, he underwent a spiritual renewal that led him to write several hymns, including lyrics to this carol that was subsequently set to the tune of Greensleeves, a traditional English folk song. Although it was written in Great Britain, the carol is more popular in the United States than in its country of origin today. The context of the carol centres around the Adoration of the Shepherds, who visited Jesus during his Nativity. The questions posed in the lyrics reflect what the shepherds were possibly pondering to themselves when they encountered him, with the rest of the carol providing a response to their questions. This arrangement represents one in the Series of Band Arrangements compatible with David Willcocks' Carols for Choirs.

What Sweeter Music (Concert Band with Optional Choir - Score and Parts) - Rutter, John - Noble, Paul

Perhaps John Rutter's most famous and popular carol is What Sweeter Music. This arrangement is written and intended for combined Wind Band and Chorus. However, it is also arranged so that it is complete with Wind Band alone. The choral part is shown in the conductor's score, but is not a part of the set. This arrangement is compatible with the published vocal score. The scoring is done with some cue size notations that should be played if performing without the chorus. This will make a delightful addition to any Christmas or seasonal concert.

What the Heart Knows (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Wiffin, Rob

Lyrical and expressive, with a wide range of emotional power, What the Heart Knows is an extended song-form. Wiffin allowed himself to indulge in the traditional tonality of English composers in the Twentieth Century which, although much disapproved of by critics, retains its appeal and never really goes away. There is some 'white-note' dissonance but the music largely uses the emotional range inherent in tonality.Duration: 6.30
