‘A Christmas March’ is a lively, easy-to-play piece
suitable for the opening or closing of a Christmas concert.

The main theme of this march is original, though here and there
Philip Sparke has peppered the piece with allusions
to well-known Christmas carols. His choices include:

Adeste Fidelis (Come, O Faithful), Deck the Halls,
Good King Wenceslas and Jingle Bells.
God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen forms the trio section of the march.

A lovely new yet familiar-sounding Christmas piece!

Cantique de Noël / O Holy Night

The 19th-century Christmas carol *Cantique de Noël* by Adolphe Charles Adam
was at the time criticised by church authorities for its lack of good taste and the absence of
religious sentiment. But they were wrong: the song is popular all over the world
and is still sung frequently – even in churches. Roland Kernen presents a beautiful
version for Concert Band here.

Arrangement: Roland Kernen
Difficulty: 2+
Key: E flat major
