[rodgersorgan] Re: Christmas music

Sounds absolutely beautiful, and yes, it does sound like a doozy. It's a doozy 
if I've ever heard it. Now I have to contact my publishers to get a copy and 
see what we can do with it. 
Thanks Chris!

  Hi Rich-
         If you are looking for a "doozy", this would certainly qualify!  Our 
  choir is singing the Vivaldi "Gloria" on the first half of the concert, but 
the 
  doozy comes in the second half.  We are singing Craig Courtney's "A 
  Musicological Journey Through the 12 Days of Christmas"(Hinshaw Music), with 
each day 
  being in the style of a certain period of music.  The 1st day is sung by the 
  men in plainchant, 2nd day in the style of 15th century France (my guys are 
  singing it in their falsetto voice!), etc, with the progression of musical 
styles 
  ending on the 12th day with 20th century American music (Sousa's "Stars and 
  Stripes Forever" tune).  Our choir absolutely loved it in our choir retreat 
last 
  weekend.  There is a pre-existing orchestration, but I am scoring it for our 
  Vivaldi orchestra and a Rodgers 967 with PRS-300.  Does this qualify for a 
  "doozy"?
