2. Loving Shepherd
William Morris

Loving Shepherd is a simple hymn setting for SATB. The first two verses are sung by high voices then low voices respectively followed by a harmonised verse for full choir. Verse four is for a solo soprano with a new contrasting melody which allows a return of the original tune in the final verse, sung now in canon to reflect the words 'Where Thou leadest I would go'. The work was first performed at the Parish Church of St Mary's, Mortlake at the christening of Thomas Drake in July 2000. Duration: 2'45"

3. The Advent Candle
William Morris

The Advent Candle is a stirring versical anthem in the English tradition, whose text (by the composer's brother Christopher) makes it suitable for Advent or for weddings. There are verses for S&A and T&B, a tenor soloist and for the whole choir. The piece was first performed in St Paul's Cathedral in December 2006.

The piece lasts 5 minutes, but its strophic structure makes it easy to learn, and with its thought-provoking text and stirring musical treatment, the piece is sure to go down well with choirs of average ability.

4. Chichester Descant Pack
William Morris

A set of 20 descants, each presented on a separate sheet, alongside the original version of the hymn. The whole of the liturgical year is represented, not just Christmas carols.

This is a photocopiable resource. Once you've bought the pack, you're at liberty to make as many copies as you need, for the people in your choir singing the descant. You can even stockpile copies for future use. (You can't distribute copies outside your choir.)

The collection has something for everyone, from simple descants through to more complicated last verse arrangements for SATB, and one even has an optional trumpet part.

Hymns include Abide With Me, Glorious Things of Thee Are Spoken, Holy Holy Holy, Immortal Invisible, Jerusalem The Golden, Jesus Christ Is Risen Today, Love Divine (Blaenwern), O Praise Ye The Lord, The Day Of Resurrection, The Head That Once Was Crowned With Thorns, Alleluia Alleluia Hearts to Heaven and Voices Raise, Forty Days and Forty Nights, Jerusalem, In The Bleak Midwinter (Cranham), While Shepherds Watched, Unto Us a Boy is Born, Hark The Herald Angels Sing ... and many more!
