Angels' Carol by John Rutter
A joyful carol of celebration with the refrain 'Gloria in excelsis', for SS (or SA) and harp or piano or orchestra. A version for SATB is also available. The orchestral material (available on hire) is the same as that for the SATB version.
Classic stuff from the best-known modern carol composer - straightforward words, a catchy tune starting on the off-beat, a rhythmic accompaniment for harp or piano, and a lively arrangement including unison, harmonic and contrapuntal techniques with, of course, the almost obligatory change of key* Deo *
John Rutter studied music at Clare College, Cambridge and first came to notice as a composer and arranger of Christmas carols and other choral pieces during those early years; today his compositions, including such concert-length works as Requiem, Magnificat, Mass of the Children, The Gift of Life, and Visions are performed around the world. John edits the Oxford Choral Classics series, and, with Sir David Willcocks, co-edited four volumes of Carols for Choirs. In 1983 he formed his own choir The Cambridge Singers, with whom he has made numerous recordings on the Collegium Records label, and he appears regularly in several countries as a guest conductor and choral ambassador. John holds a Lambeth Doctorate in Music, and was awarded a CBE for services to music in 2007.
