O Holy Night  gospel setting for SATB chorus and piano
Coming in Fall 2020
See and hear excerpt.
Editor's Choice from JW Pepper Music:
This soulful, gospel-style setting of the favorite carol O Holy Night is a treat for mixed choirs. Gorgeous smooth harmonies and a stylized piano accompaniment bring a freshness to the standard, and the option to feature a soloist for the opening bars helps to establish the style. A lovely arrangement that will shine in both concerts and worship services.
