By combining the lively WEST INDIES CAROL with a new text and an original lullaby, Joel Raney has crafted a spirited Christmas celebration for SATB, SAB, or Two-Part treble choirs. The calypso rhythms provide a joyful expression of the angels’ song, “Alleluia, shout for joy,” alongside an original cradle song, “Sleep little one, rest your head.” The addition of the optional flute, percussion, bass guitar, and handbells brings this stunning setting - a perfect Christmas selection for churches and schools - to life.

The Instrumental packet includes a Conductor's Score, NON-reproducible parts for flute and bass guitar, reproducible parts for percussion (claves, triangle, shaker, and djembe/conga), and a reproducible 3-Octave Handbell score. Set in G Major and Ab Major, this work is 93 measures.
