4BR Shop: A Christmas Fantasia — Sheet music PDFs

A great addition to your Christmas repertoire from the pen of Andrew Wainwright...

Christmas
  A Christmas Fantasia is a great addition to your band's Christmas repertoire

Thursday, 28 November 2019

        

Premiered by the Virtuosi GUS Band, this descriptive work features the carols 'Noel Nouvelet', 'God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen', 'A Great and Mighty Wonder', 'The Infant King', 'Tomorrow Shall be my Dancing Day' and 'Of the Father's Heart Begotten'.

'A Christmas Fantasia' is a Salvation Army style selection — the kind of fusing of familiar carols that Ray Steadman-Allen and Leslie Condon were so good at.

To view a video of the piece please visit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFpQpLQSqUs

Price: £26.99
