Composed by George Frideric Handel. Arranged by Shelton Ridge Love. Christian,Christmas,Sacred. Octavo. 10 pages. Shelton Ridge Love #3223019. Published by Shelton Ridge Love (A0.779352).A new, exuberant setting of the well-loved Christmas carol, this arrangement allows for the audience or congregation to participate. The arrangement opens with an exciting fanfare that continues in the accompaniment while the choir sings the first stanza in broad 6/8 meter. The second and third stanzas use the original duple meter setting with new harmonies intended to paint the text. A growing vocal interlude leads into the final stanza incorporating the audience on the melody and including a soaring soprano descant. Finally, the choir closes with a return to the opening fanfare motive.
