What Child is This
from Choral Music Hosted by Amy Gordon
What Child Is This? is a traditional English Christmas Carol composed in the 1800s. This arrangement, commissioned by Jonathan Bautista and dedicated to Nova Vocal Ensemble, fuses the melody and lyrics of What Child is This with motives and harmonies found in Carol of the Bells, a Ukrainian carol. Each voice has a chance to sing the various motives drawn from Carol of the Bells, making this a fun choral piece that combines two beloved Christmas carols. This arrangement would fit well in any holiday-themed concert, Festival of Lessons and Carols, or sacred Christmas service. Conductor: Michael Alfera Ensemble: The L.A. Choral Lab
