Full Performance. Duration 132. DML #722006. Published by DML (A0.1120790). Still, still, still is an Austrian Christmas carol and lullaby. The melody is a folk tune from Salzburg. The tune appeared for the first time in 1865 in a folksong collection of Vinzenz Maria Süß (1802–1868), founder of the Salzburg Museum. There are various English translations but this one is my own and I have tried to stay close to the original German version supporting the idea of a lullaby, a mother trying to get her baby off to sleep. I have added a fourth verse which is essentially the first verse but with the words changed so that the baby is now sleeping. Score available.

Chamber,Christian,Christmas,Classical,Contemporary. 18 pages. DML #700810. Published by DML (A0.1096857). I wrote this carol in 2004 for the annual carol service which became known as A Star For Christmas. . I wanted to try and capture the essence of a birth where the mother knows her child faces death by execution from the minute of conception, I do not think you can remove the joy of it whatever the final outcome. It is not difficult to play or sing but the time signature is unusual. It is the guitar part in 7/8 while really the flute and vocals feel as if they are in 6/8 which can make it difficult, it needs to be felt not counted.

I wrote this carol in 2004 for the annual carol service which became known as A Star For Christmas. I wanted to try and capture the essence of a birth where the mother knows her child faces death by execution from the minute of conception even though the purpose is to save humanity. I do not think you can remove the joy of it whatever the final outcome but it must have been an extraordinary realization for Mary at that moment. Score available.

Christian,Christmas,Classical,Contemporary,Traditional. Full Performance. Duration 217. DML #722013. Published by DML (A0.1120804). Süßer die Glocken nie klingen (Sweeter the bells never sound) is a popular Austrian carol with text by Friedrich Wilhelm Kritzinger to a traditional Volkslied (folk song) melody, first printed in 1860. This version is taken from the Vienna Boys Choir for both the lyric and the melody. I’ve arranged it for tenor and treble where the treble takes the melody for the first two verses but for the final verse the tenor takes over the tune while the treble sings what might be considered a descant. Score available.
