£75.00Here We Come A-Wassailing (Concert Band with Optional Choir - Score and Parts) - Noble & Rutter
Here We Come A-wassailing (or Here We Come A-caroling) is an English traditional Christmas carol and New Year song, apparently composed c. 1850. The old English wassail song refers to 'wassailing', or singing carols door to door wishing good health, while the a- is an archaic intensifying prefix; compare A-Hunting We Will Go and lyrics to The Twelve Days of Christmas (e.g., Six geese a-laying). According to Readers Digest; the Christmas spirit often made the rich a little more generous than usual, and bands of beggars and orphans used to dance their way through the snowy streets of England, offering to sing good cheer and to tell good fortune if the householder would give them a drink from his wassail bowl or a penny or a pork pie or, let them stand for a few minutes beside the warmth of his hearth. This arrangement represents one in the Series of Band Arrangements compatible with David Willcocks' Carols for Choirs.

£75.00It Came Upon the Midnight Clear (Concert Band with Optional Choir - Score and Parts) - Noble & Willcocks
It Came Upon the Midnight Clear (1849), sometimes rendered as It Came Upon a Midnight Clear, is a poem and Christmas carol written by Edmund Sears, pastor of the Unitarian Church in Wayland, Massachusetts. Writing during a period of personal melancholy, and with news of revolution in Europe and the United States' war with Mexico fresh in his mind, Sears portrayed the world as dark, full of sin and strife, and not hearing the Christmas message. In Commonwealth countries, the tune called Noel, which was adapted from an English melody in 1874 by Arthur Sullivan, is the usual accompaniment. This tune also appears as an alternative in The Hymnal 1982, the hymnal of the United States Episcopal Church. This arrangement represents one in the Series of Band Arrangements compatible with David Willcocks' Carols for Choirs.

£75.00God Rest You Merry, Gentlemen (Concert Band with Optional Choir - Score and Parts) - Noble & Willcocks
God Rest You Merry, Gentlemen is an English traditional Christmas carol. It is one of the oldest extant carols, dated to the 16th century or earlier. There are contradictory interpretations of the meaning of the phrase rest you merry at the time it was written in this carol: the verb 'rest' in the sense to keep, cause to continue to remain is typical of 16th to 17th century language. The adjective 'merry' in Early Modern English had a wider sense of pleasant; bountiful, prosperous. Some interpretations have 'merry' meaning 'mighty'. This arrangement represents one in the Series of Band Arrangements compatible with David Willcocks' Carols for Choirs.
