Description:
A contemporary arrangement of the Basque Christmas carol, The Angel Gabriel by Nicholas Maw (1935-2009) is one of four Christmas songs written by the composer in the 1960s. The familiar melody is treated in a variety of ways, frequently wandering through the voices, meandering through multi-layered textures and bold harmonies.
This piece for four mixed choral voices (with no other voice divisions) appears here in a new edition that represents a welcome return of a remarkable version of an instantly recognizable Christmas carol.
