Ken Litton (ASCAP)Sheet Music Directhttps://www.sheetmusicdirect.com/en-US/se/ID_No/1615662/Product.aspxSheet Music Plushttps://www.sheetmusicplus.comAlso available:Audio accompaniment/demo MP3Those who have the good fortunate to hear Gustav Holst’s arrangement of PERSONENT HODIE as a choral processional with its engaging melody, measured gait and echoed text have never forgotten the magical moment and were never really ready for it to end. Hailing from The Oxford Book of Carols this German plainsong melody—from the Piae Cantones, 1583—has made its way into strong choral and worship traditions at Advent/Christmas.Of all the current texts and arrangements available, this version honors Holst’s unison accompanied setting in an unexpected, subtle jazz styling with the hope of bringing additional range to its established place in advent literature (both in terms of style and in appeal to a variety of age groups).And, On This Day Earth Shall Ring, translated by Jane M. Joseph (text in the public domain) gives it just the balancing traditional touch needed..This UNISON setting offers accompaniment designed for piano or organ with option for a string bass played finger style in the jazz tradition.This one is perfect for Lessons & Carols presentations. And, it can easily be restarted for processional use by dropping back into the C minor introduction’s bracketed bass line.Also available in an SATB version that offers accompaniment designed for piano or organ, optional acoustic/string bass and an optional part for a single player involving three of the percussionist section best friends: suspended cymbal, mallets (vibraphone, marimba or bells or bell lyre), and a small triangle. But, an electronic piano/synthesizer voice could substitute well for the mallets and the use of handbells is also viable.Note: This hymn plate version has everything needed for the worshiping congregation!Also available: Audio accompaniment/demo MP3All this from the places you go for the best in downloadable resources as well as via Hal Leonard InStore™ retailers.Be sure to check out other titles from East of the Altar/Artist of Note, Inc.Thanks, as always to the good folks at ArrangeMe.com, a division of Hal Leonard!
