Silent Night - Franz Gruber

Published initially for band, the style of the accompaniment of this tender and richly scored setting of a Christmas favorite is based on the familiar Gymnopedie No. 1 by Eric Satie. It will add great distinction to seasonal programs that involve both the band and the chorus, though the choral and band versions can also be performed independently. The choral octavo comes in three versions - SATB, SAB and SSA.
