On Christmas Day is a medley of I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day and I Saw Three Ships by Mark R Lewis. John Baptiste Calkin wrote the music for I Heard the Bells in 1872 as an adaptation of the earlier poem Christmas Bells by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. I Saw Three Ships is an English carol thought to originate from the 17th century, though the lyrics used is most modern arrangements come from later published versions.This arrangement is intended to be performed by TTBB divisi choir and accompanied by a 3-5 octave handbell choir. All four voice parts pass the melody back and forth and are featured at different times and explore different vocal and accompaniment styles throughout the piece. Most intermediate choirs should be able to perform this piece, although the bass 2s should be able to sing down to a D2 (there are optional notes if this is too low). The handbell part is not particularly difficult but is active across the whole ensemble and uses mallets through one of the middle verses. There are also several key changes that will require quick bell changes or sharing of bells. It is also worth noting that I Heard the Bells is in 4/4 and I Saw Three Ships is in 6/8.This download includes a piano and choir score for when handbells are not an option as well as the handbell sheet music. Handbells are the preferred accompaniment, although it will still sound good with just piano.

Choral Choir (TTBB) - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1045440 Composed by Irish Folk Song. Arranged by Mark R Lewis. Celtic,Folk,Irish,Traditional. Octavo. 26 pages. Mark R Lewis #650020. Published by Mark R Lewis (A0.1045440). This fun Irish folk song has been arranged by Mark R Lewis for TTBB ensemble with an accompanying solo instrumental line. The song uses the hymn tune Kingsfold and the lyrics are thought to have been written by Cathay MacGarvey in the late 1800s. Each part gets the melody for a verse and there is a fun diversion into 6/8 for the Tenor 1s in the 3rd verse. This score comes with options to play the instrumental line on C, Bb, or Eb instruments. The vocal parts are not too difficult but the instrumentalist will need to be moderately advanced, especially if they choose to take the optional ad lib verse instead of the written out solo, which is already rather towards the extreme of the instrument's range.

Mark R Lewis #649649. Published by Mark R Lewis (A0.1045085). The tune for Star in the East first appears in print in The Southern Harmony collection, but is well attested as an American Folk Hymn. The lyrics are partially anonymous but most published versions include verses that seem to have been added by the arranger of that version. This Epiphany song has similar themes to We Three Kings but is definitely a refreshing change from that well known tune. This fun arrangement by Mark R Lewis is for Baritone soloist, TTB choir, a woodwind instrument, and bass instrument. Included is sheet music for C, Bb, and Eb instruments and a bass line which can be played by many different bass instruments depending on what the group has available. The instrumentalists can transpose their parts to different octaves for ease of playing if necessary. The Baritone soloist should be a well experienced intermediate singer and the bass line is very active at times, but the choir and woodwind parts should be performable by most intermediate groups. Also available for Baritone solo w/ SATB ensemble. Vocal Range: f minor Baritone solo - 1 1/2 octaves (Bb2 to F4) Tenor 1 - 1+ octaves (Eb3 to F4) Tenor 2 - 1 octave (C3 to C4) Bass - 1+ octaves (F2 to Gb3) Instrument Range: Clarinet - max 3 1/2 octaves (F3 to A5) can be smaller if octaves are transposed Bass instrument - 1 1/2 octaves (F2 to C4).
