Are you looking for something a little different for your Christmas concert or service this year? The SwirlyMusic website includes a number of original settings and arrangements of mine which may suit your choir.
The scores can be easily found on the site, with live recordings to help you choose. All downloadable for immediate printing, or printed copies may be ordered. For example:
SATB with some divisions: Star of the East, Christmas Fanfare, Bright was the Star, Guiding Star (all above have been performed with orchestra in Symphony Hall, Birmingham in recent years);
EASIER SATB: Little Lamb, who made thee?, Away in a Manger (a cappella). Go, tell it on the Mountain, Christmas Candles (suitable for community choirs);
CHILDREN’S CHOIR (unison/2-pt.): The Sleepy Shepherd Boy, Christmas Time in the Eyes of a Child, Christmas is Coming.
EXTENDED PIECE: Gloria in D, for Soprano soloist, mixed chorus, brass, timps. & organ

I’ve just noticed that all the above and various other of my Christmas settings are currently being offered by Sheet Music Express at s substantial (20%) discount. See http://www.sheetmusicplus.com/ensembles/choir/christmas/500021+700025?narrow_by=Thornett&Ntt=Thornett
(Or go to the SMP site and search under ‘Christmas’ and my name.) I imagine this is a time limited offer.
