"A Children's Christmas Suite" for orchestra (2,2,2,2; 2.2; timps, perc., harp & strings) by Gordon Thornett Are you looking for something a little different for your Christmas concert this year? This new orchestral piece includes a number of well-known Christmas tunes: it's called "A Children's Christmas Suite". Although written to appeal to young people - with such favourites as 'Jingle Bells', 'Little Jesus, sweetly sleep', 'The Birds Carol', 'Away in a manger' (British version!) and the Huron Carol - I hope it will be enjoyed by people of all ages. It has a particularly rollicking finale, based on 'We wish you a merry Christmas' and a reprise of 'O come, little children', with which the piece opened. The whole piece last about 9' 30", but the individual movements may be performed separately. Instrumental parts obtainable separately or as a package: please contact composer at gtbham@me.com Have a listen to this new live recording by the Birmingham Royal Ballet Sinfonia, conducted by Gavin Sutherland.PLEASE NOTE - This download now includes conductor's score and all instrumental parts.UPDATE [November 2023]: This piece has just been released on a Heritage CD (HTGCD139) with the title "A Child's Christmas".
