Product Description
This lovely 2-part (plus soloists) Christmas anthem (from the children's musical The Animal Alleluia) is perfect for children's choirs-- use it in your Christmas Pageant, or your Lessons & Carols service! It tells the story of the camels who carry the three magi to Bethlehem through desert, and is pitched in an accessible key for most voices. The simple middle-eastern style melody is easy to learn, even for very young children, but interest is built through easy harmonies, a key change, and three solo opportunities. Approximate performance time: 2:54. (Also available for unison choirs)
This product is one song from a complete musical called The Animal Alleluia which is also available on Sheet Music Plus:
