Choral Choir,Choral (SATB) - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.998882 Composed by Robert A. Howard. 21st Century,Advent,Christmas,Folk,Praise & Worship. 7 pages. Robert A. Howard #6486857. Published by Robert A. Howard (A0.998882). This is an original setting of a text commonly associated with a movement from Benjamin Britten's A Ceremony of Carols, for use in worship or concerts at Christmas. The lilting rhythms of compound metre portray the gentle rocking of a baby's crib, clearly referring to the song's subject matter. Textural variation in the piano and choral parts provide variety in each verse. The piece is appropriate for most standards of SATB choir, including school, student, community, church and cathedral choirs. The accompaniment is quite pianistic but can be played/adapted on the organ. The original simple unison setting, as well as versions for solo voice, and for SA Choir, are also available via Sheet Music Plus.
