Composed by Marc-Antoine Charpentier. Arranged by Ray Thompson. Baroque,Chamber,Christian,Christmas. 31 pages. RayThompsonMusic #756754. Published by RayThompsonMusic (A0.1156439).Arranged standard wind quintet
Charpentier wrote a lot of music for Christmas: oratorios on Christmas themes, pastorals, noels, and a lovely "Midnight Mass for Christmas."
He arranged a lot of French Christmas Carols (Noels) as 2 suites _ Noels sur les instruments and Noels pour les instruments for a string orchestra and 2 flutes/recorders.
This is my transcription of the "Noëls sur les instruments" for standard wind quintet. (flute, oboe, clarinet, horn and bassoon)
They are 6 pieces :
Les Bourgeois de Chastre (The Townsfolk of Chastre)
Où s'en vont ces gais bergers (Where have the merry shepherds gone?)
Joseph est bien marié (Joseph is happily married)
Or nous dites Marie (But, tell us Mary)
A la venue de Noël (With the coming of Christmas)
Une jeune pucelle (A young maid/virgin/girl)
This is purely the order they are shown in his manuscript.
They appear in his Midnight Mass in the following order:
(This follows the Christmas Story)
Joseph est bien marié (Joseph is well married)
Or nous dites Marie (But, tell us Mary)
Une jeune pucelle (A young maid/virgin/girl)
Les Bourgeois de Chastre (The Townsfolk of Chastre)
Où s'en vont ces gais bergers (Where have the merry shepherds gone?)
A la venue de Noël (With the coming of Christmas)
