The bishops have decided to require the Entrance Antiphon to be sung, but singing Gregorian chants in most parishes is impractical at best. Here are the Entrance Antiphons for the Christmas season. Each Sunday includes a contemporary setting for choir, canto, and congregation with piano accompaniment, and a setting to a familiar hymn tune appropriate to the day, suitable for organ. Enjoy!

By Sara Bareilles & Ingrid Michaelson. By Ingrid Michaelson and Sara Bareilles. Arranged by Brandon Haynes. Christmas,Pop. 10 pages. Brandon Haynes #1062623. Published by Brandon Haynes (A0.1485563).

Winter Song is a poignant poetic reflection that broadly touches on the melancholy of the absence of a loved one set in the landscape of winter. The lyrics question if love is resilient enough to overcome the obstacles presented by the harshness of a winter storm until the season changes. The text does not give a definitive answer as the final refrain continually asks the question; is love alive? This leaves an open window for the listener to reflect and resolve. This arrangement of Sara Bareilles & Ingrid Michaelson's Winter Song is 1 of 2 songs featured in my Christmas suite, A Bareilles Christmastide. It is arranged for two equal duet voices, SATB divisi chorus, piano accompaniment, and an optional cello.

Composed by 11th century trope. Arranged by Michael D. McClish. Christian,Christmas,Praise & Worship,Sacred. Octavo. 7 pages. Michael D. McClish #6656833. Published by Michael D. McClish (A0.940837).

This is a beautiful rendition of the familiar chant, keeping the intent of early chant and choral sound, but within a more contemporary harmonic palette.  It begins simply and ends in a very uplifting, positive manner, with several transpositions along the way.  However, the feeling of plainchant is always present in each variation as they evolve.  This is the first of what I hope to be a collection of hymn arrangements for choir that follow the Christian Church Year, this one being Advent season.  Of course it can be sung anytime that fits the situation, but I used the United Methodist Hymnal suggestion for an Advent hymn.  The piano simulates bells and chimes, and the voices sometimes do also.  A very uplifting arrangement, while not so difficult as to discourage choirs.  It employs the concept of canon and contemporary harmonies.  I hope you and your choir or choral organization enjoy it as much as I enjoyed writing it.

By Charlie Puth. By Charlie Puth, Daniel Smyers, and Jordan Reynolds. Arranged by Jacob Klingsten. 21st Century,A Cappella,Contemporary,Pop. 14 pages. Jacob Klingsten #931792. Published by Jacob Klingsten (A0.1347140).

That's Not How This Works by Charlie Puth is a 2023 pop hit with chilling harmonies and a confrontational message on setting expectations. This arrangement is for SATB a cappella groups or choirs and sits at an intermediate level for the high school/collegiate age. While there isn’t a vocal percussionist part in the score, it is recommended to perform this arrangement with one, as the score indicates entrances and exits for the VP.

This arrangement features three soloists, all with their own respective line in the score. If one wishes to, the third solo part can be merged into the other two solo parts. While this piece appears to be difficult, the fairly repetitive nature, mostly homophonic texture, and limited range of the vocal parts eases the learning process.

Additional Details:

• Key: A Major
• 14 Pages
• Length: 2m 43s
• Ranges:
  • Soloist 1: F#3-E5
  • Soloist 2: F#3-E5

By Toto. By David Paich. Arranged by Jacob Klingsten. 20th Century,A Cappella,Contemporary,Rock. 16 pages. Jacob Klingsten #931373. Published by Jacob Klingsten (A0.1346604).

“Hold The Line� by Toto is a spectacular seventies rock song from their debut album, Toto. This arrangement is for SATB acapella groups, and sits at a medium-level difficulty for high school/collegiate groups. While there isn’t a vocal percussionist part in the score, it is recommended to perform this arrangement with one.

This arrangement features a driving beat, a care-free yet stunning solo line, and pulsing, grooving lines in the supporting parts. While the piece is in quadruple compound time (12/8), the repetitive mixed meter feel this piece features allows students to grasp with varying subdivisions throughout.

By Sam Smith. By Ed Sheeran, Fred Gibson, James Napier, Johnny McDaid, Samuel Frederick Smith, and Steve Mac. Arranged by Jacob Klingsten. 21st Century,A Cappella,Contemporary,Singer/Songwriter. 16 pages. Jacob Klingsten #934182. Published by Jacob Klingsten (A0.1349490).

Who We Love by Sam Smith is a moving ballad that has beautiful harmonic integrity. This arrangement is for average- to larger-sized SATB a cappella groups, and sits at a intermediate-advanced difficulty for high school/collegiate groups. This arrangement is similarly for the a cappella group looking to explore cluster chords while fulfilling a slow, but moving ballad slot for your song set. While there isn’t a vocal percussionist part in the score, there is a slight amount of body percussion involved in the second verse, which can be replaced by a vocal percussionist if desired.

This arrangement features incredible harmonies, including many cluster chords that sound full and rich; these cluster chords are often met with two- and occasionally three-part splits within each voice part, which makes it crucial for each part to be solid. If your group does not have enough members to satisfy the three-part splits, one of the notes can be omitted for a similar sounding product. Additionally, there are two solo opportunities featured, each with the exact same range. If only one solo is desired, the soloist can simply follow the melody. Finally, this arrangement also has a unique ending -- instead of ending on the four (IV) chord, like in the original recording, the final progression resolves to the tonic with a tear-jerking minor four (iv) to one (I).

  • Solos 1/2: F#3-G#5

Tears Dry On Their Own by Amy Winehouse is a wonderful R&B selection that has just the right amount of sass and sway for an exceptional work of music. This arrangement is for SATB a cappella groups, and sits at an easy-intermediate difficulty for high school/collegiate groups. While there isn’t a vocal percussionist part in the score, it is recommended to perform this arrangement with one.

This arrangement features quite repetitive jazz harmonies and relatively limited ranges in the vocal parts, making the learn quite easy. Additionally, the bass part features a groovy bass line that everyone can move to.

Composed by Christopher R. Brown. Christian,Gospel,Praise & Worship,Sacred. Octavo. 11 pages. Christopher Brown #4725447. Published by Christopher Brown (A0.747204).

About the song: Satan has been decisively defeated. In every battle with the devil, 1 John 4:4 assures us that God is greater. When we feel trapped in sin, God is greater. When we are tempted to doubt, God is greater. When we face trials, God is greater. When we experience great loss or disappointment, God is greater still. He is able to strengthen, help, comfort, and uphold our souls by His power and might regardless of the circumstances in which we find ourselves. This is reason for hope, joy, and praise even in the darkest valley.

Can be performed with piano accompaniment only, OR with additional band members, OR with full orchestra*.

Please Note:
You can purchase individual copies of the vocal part separately on Sheet Music Plus. Performance of this piece requires the purchase of one vocal score per singer.

*Full orchestration and parts also available on Sheet Music Plus.

Lyrics:

Verse 1

When it seems there’s no way out,

He can make a way.

In the darkness of my doubt,

He’s the light of day.

Ev’ry trial that I face,

Comes with His mercy and His grace.

Pre-Chorus 1

Greater is He Who lives in me.

Stronger than the plans of ev’ry enemy.

From sin and death I’ve been set free.

He set me free!

Chorus 1

This is my hope when I’m walking through the valley of the shadow.

This is my joy in the sorrow and the pain.

This is the Truth when I’m caught up in the middle of the battle.

Greater is He that is in me.

Verse 2

When my world begins to shake,

He’s unshakable.

When my circumstances change,

He’s unchangeable.

In ev’ry storm and crashing wave,

My God is powerful to save.

Pre-Chorus 2

Greater is He Who lives in me.

Stronger than the plans of ev’ry enemy.

From sin and death I’ve been set free.

He set me free!

Chorus 2

This is my hope when I’m walking through the valley of the shadow.

This is my joy in the sorrow and the pain.

This is the Truth when I’m caught up in the middle of the battle.

Greater is He that is in me.

Bridge 1

There isn’t any other,

Who has the power, power.

The King of Kings, and Lord of Lords,

We lift Him higher, higher.

Bridge 2

We raise our voices louder,

Our God is stronger, stronger.

The King of Kings, and Lord of Lords,

We lift Him higher, higher.

Chorus 3

This is my hope when I’m walking through the valley of the shadow.

This is my joy in the sorrow and the pain.

This is the Truth when I’m caught up in the middle of the battle.

Greater is He,

Greater is He,

Greater is He that is in me.

Composed by Emily Crocker. Arranged by Peter Dennee. Advent,Christmas,Holiday,Sacred. 8 pages. Peter Dennee #911541. Published by Peter Dennee (A0.1323313).

For the developing adult church choir, this arrangement stays within comfortable ranges for all voice parts. This selection works well during the Advent season. At my church, we also celebrate the changing of the seasons quarterly, so this anthem works well for our Advent service that also celebrates the Winter Solstice.
