Do You Hear What I Hear

Uses: Christmas, Concert Scripture: Matthew 2:1-11; Luke 2:1-14 Written in 1962 during the Cuban Missile crisis, this modern mega-hit is a plea for peace and an affectionate portrait of the spirit of Christmas. The arranger brings a sense ofcinematic scope and theatrical flair to this fully orchestrated version. The choral writing is surprisingly approachable, yet the sonic impact is significant and fulfilling. A lasting effect is achieved with brilliant pacing and a daring crescendo. Anew classic!
