Description:
Angels of Christmas is a beautiful and original addition to the holiday repertoire. This lyrical ballad skillfully weaves together fragments from three well-known Christmas carols—Angels We Have Heard on High, Hark, the Herald Angels Sing, and O Little Town of Bethlehem—that reference the appearance of angels. The carols’ melodies are interwoven with bold harmonies and shifting instrumental colors, creating a rich tapestry of sound. The piece builds to a jubilant climax before transitioning into a poignant ending, offering a sensitive and fresh interpretation of these timeless carols.
