On this night
Product Details
Description
On this night is an adaptation of the middle movement of Will Todd’s three-movement choral suite Praise all things, which was written in 2019 for Preston Hollow Presbyterian Church, Texas. This alternative Christmas lyric was created by Todd for this piece as a stand-alone for the 2025 album ‘All Will Be Well’. The glowing jazzy melody inspired the lyrics celebrating the Christmas message. It can be performed by SATB choirs (no divisi) with just piano accompaniment using the part in this vocal score, or extemporised using the given chord symbols, or with an ensemble of piano, bass, drums, alto saxophone, harp and strings (full score and parts available as digital downloads).
