Description:
Three Silent Nights combines three favorite pieces of the holiday season. All Through the Night starts this arrangement with energy before the tempo slows down, the key modulates from G Major to D Major, and the meter changes for the meditative Silent Night. This crescendos gradually into the lyrical melody O, Holy Night for a dramatic conclusion. First violins, cellos, and basses will encounter some shifting, while all players get to work on a variety of finger patterns. A beautiful medley for a night of winter music!
