Anniversary Carol Book for Chorus and Organ [Alf:36-J99100]

Jackson Berkey's Anniversary Carols are as unusual as they are familiar. Using surprises in rhythm, meter, voicing, instruments and harmonies, the composer brings a refreshing sparkle to the familiar melodies, presenting audiences with songs that are at once dear and traditional, yet delightfully new again. Jackson Berkey's collection of Christmas carol and hymn arrangements were originally presented as anniversary gifts to his lady, Almeda, music director of Nebraska's Professional Chorale, Soli Deo Gloria Cantorum. This collection includes all ten of the Anniversary Carols and Harp Interludes, as recorded by Soli Deo Gloria Cantorum on their Cantorum Christmas! CD. Offered by the publisher especially for those wishing to perform all of the carols.
