Joyous Sounds of Christmas, The

Holiday

A very playable suite of three Christmas carols (“Good King Wenceslas,” “Away in a Manger,” and “Oh Come, All Ye Faithful”) this grouping will make an enjoyable addition to any Christmas program. The viola and 2nd violin are virtually the same to strengthen the middle voices of the orchestra. The warm, full sound will be very appealing to both players and audience.
