By Stacey Plays Hymns. Composed by Jean de Brébeuf. Arranged by Anastace. This edition: audio, pdf, streaming. Christian, Christmas, Historic, Religious, Sacred. Score. 7 pages. Anastace #1124993. Published by Anastace (A0.1552577).

Here is a flowing, richly harmonized version of “The Huron Carol”, as heard on my YouTube channel. Also known as "Twas in the Moon of Wintertime, this is of the most lovely and haunting Christmas carols and the oldest Canadian Christmas song. This arrangement features a detailed piano accompaniment, optional descants and choral harmonies, and a soaring key change into E flat minor from the start in D Minor. This version is in the original key to match the recording on YouTube, and has a melody range of C4-Bb4, a comfortable range for most congregations. For a version in a higher or lower key to match a different vocal range just write to me and I will publish it for you.
I hope this brings some extra Christmas wonder to your upcoming church service or holiday concert, whether it is sung by a soloist or by the whole congregation.

Also available, by searching "Stacey Plays Hymns" and the song title on this site is a version with a reasonably simplified piano accompaniment, more within reach of someone who has to learn this song last minute. This version that you're looking at though is the exact transcripton of the version I recorded, suitable for a fairly high level pianist.

For other formats including large print, a different key to match a soloist's preferred range, or piano solo, please write me at staceyplayshymns@gmail.com and I'll be glad to make them especially for you. Purchase includes a free / implied license for one church service with under 300 people, with proper attribution and credit in any printed or online materials. For a license to use this work on a larger scale, please contact me for permission and other usage details including lyrics formatted for printing in church bulletins or for powerpoint. Please let me know if there is any other way I can serve you as a congregation or fellow music/choir director as I endeavour to write several new choral anthems per year, along with my other recording work.

Thank you for supporting modern hymnwriters and musicians!
