In the lineage of the traditional Christmas carols (Christmas carols in the American tradition), this original song by Pierre-Gerard and Karine VERNY, revisits the themes of childhood and the magic of Christmas in a very jazzy idiom.
The lyrics (one version in English and another in French) echo all those little joys that turn adults into children as Christmas approaches, while the music takes us back to this season through a joyful and catchy melody.
This version is composed for mixed voices which can be sung SATB or SMAH if the choir has few men,
The realization is of medium difficulty, the main pitfall being centered on jazz interpretation (ternary).
However, and in order to make learning easy without spending time deciphering in a group, audio files (recorded with "real" instruments and vocals) are proposed to accompany this score: complete realization, play back (piano, double bass, drums, saxophone) and files with each voice with realization in background for the choristers.
Your Christmas concerts won't do without "Waiting for Christmas" anymore...
Original creation harmonized for mixed voices (SATB ou SMAH).
Also available an equal-voice version.
