Christmas Cheer for Alto and piano

[Gav Brown]

Hello colleagues,
This is one of 5 Xmas songs I wrote in conjunction with lyricist Miesha Lowery. When I asked her for lyrics, I didn’t give any guidance other than that the songs should be for Xmas, then I wrote the music to match the lyrics. I used The Happy Choir to sing the lyrics, which in this demo are sung in a male voice, but ultimately I will be getting a recording done this spring (assuming COVID gets under control) by a female Alto singer. Score is available if there is interest, and comments as always invited >

 Gav,

 I much enjoyed the composition. If you ever want a real male tenor give me a shout. I'll see what I can do.

Hi Timothy,

Thanks for listening and offering your thoughts. I also appreciate the offer!

Hi Gav,

Wonderful song with the best virtual choir a've ever heard so far. The sober accompaniment leaves the voice every opportunity to shine.

Nice work!

Happy New Year,

Jos

Hi Jos, and Happy New Year to you too!

I appreciate your taking the time to listen and comment. Note: it's not a virtual choir, it's an internet service I hire to do vocals. Much better than Ooh and Aah!
