This well-known and loved book offers a comprehensive selection of the 100 most popular carols and hymns for Advent, Christmas, Epiphany, and Easter. Edited by foremost English composers David Willcocks and John Rutter, 100 Carols for Choirs is ideal for sacred occasions and carol concerts, and includes both accompanied and unaccompanied material, mostly set for SATB.
100 Carols for Choirs incorporates many standard congregational carols like 'Once in royal David’s city', 'O little town of Bethlehem', 'O come, O come Emmanuel' and 'O come, all ye faithful'. These are all brilliant for beginner or school choirs, as the choristers can be introduced to singing in harmony gradually, underneath tunes that many of them will already know.
The book also features many popular modern Christmas works by composers like Willcocks, Rutter, and Maxwell Davies, as well as older arrangements by the likes of Holst and Tchaikovsky. With all this in mind, 100 Carols for Choirs really has become an essential for many looking to celebrate Christmas in musical fashion.
