Christmas Carols, for 4 cellos

Edición de / Edited by: Bruggaier, Roswitha

This issue offers a variety of the most popular Christmas carols both in traditional movements which were rearranged and in new ones, written by the editor for 4 violoncelli. A choir-like performance by a large ensemble is also possible. The arrangements are a result of working with the ensemble Dr. Hoch?s Philharmonische Cellisten of which the editor is in charge. The movements are very easy and with only a few exceptions they can be played in the 1st position. The songs are less suited for singing along since they are usually notated in a low register. According to the author, it is recommended to enjoy the pure cello sound.

CONTENIDO:

Es ist ein Ros entsprungen
Es kommt ein Schiff geladen
Herbei, o ihr Gläub'gen
Ihr Kinderlein, kommet
In dulci jubilo
Kommet, ihr Hirten
Lasst uns froh und munter sein
Leise rieselt der Schnee
Lobt Gott, ihr Christen
Macht hoch die Tür
Mit Ernst, o Menschenkinder
Nun komm, der Heiden Heiland
O du fröhliche
O Jesulein zart
Quem pastores laudavere
Stille Nacht
Tochter Zion, freue dich
Vom Himmel hoch
Zu Bethlehem geboren
