Product Description

"Twas in the Moon of Wintertime", Traditional French Canadian Carol for Euphonium Quartet, arranged by Sarah Houle, 2021.

Based on an old French carol, this arrangement elaborates on the original traditional hymn tune, sometimes known as "The Huron Carol", except I wanted to make it considerably more musically interesting instead of just chunky block chord progressions.

The tune embodies the cold and stillness of winter. The melodic line is very much like "O Come Emmanuel" in that it can float over a pedal note drone. There isnt much of a static pedal drone note in this arrangement. Instead, individual parts often enter on harmonic tones that sometimes linger just long enough to create a crystalline dissonance in the music. The sound of bitter cold and dark nights.

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters. ArrangeMe allows for the publication of unique arrangements of both popular titles and original compositions from a wide variety of voices and backgrounds.
