On Christmas Night is a musical celebration of the Christmas story, presented as a sequence of eight original carols. Chilcott calls upon several familiar carol melodies within his own settings, resulting in an impressive array of styles and moods-from comforting and reflective to jubilant, swinging, and folksy. The work as a whole can be performed liturgically or in concert, with or without the composer's suggested readings, while individual carols may also be programmed separately.
Combining tradition and invention, On Christmas Night is a versatile and enchanting addition to the choral repertory.
An accompaniment for chamber ensemble is available on hire/rental.
