A Christmas Rose

"A Christmas Rose" is a setting of "Lo, How A Rose E'er Blooming," a German Christmas hymn by Michael Praetorius, originally written in 1599. This dramatic setting gives young musicians an opportunity to play lyrically and with expressive dynamics. As various families of instruments in the band are featured, every player has an opportunity for rich and lyrical playing. This work will provide an intimate musical portrait in your holiday concert.
