Christmas Is Coming

This jovial and spirited carol is sure to bring a smile to many faces at Christmastime. The traditional text is augmented with additional lyrics by David Warner, and composer Mack Wilberg puts the melody through a wealth of festive musical treatments. The piano-duet part not only accompanies the choir but adds several layers of interest and color, with a bass drone, glittering flourishes in the upper register, and passages evoking sleigh bells. Perfect for use as a closing piece or encore in a Christmas concert.
