Miracle of Love

Two Editions: SATB and SAB Christmas The ultimate miracle of love is the Christmas story itself, celebrated here with familiar carols and original music connected by poignant, thought-provoking narratives. "Miracle of Love" uses a narrator as the contemporary link to Biblical times, setting the scene and asking questions The work incorporates from 7 to 22 different characters or readers - some anonymous, some named - to tell the Christmas story through the eyes of those witnessing the birth of Christ. These brief narratives, created by Mark Cabaniss, may be either spoken from a lectern or performed on a stage as vignettes, or in combination of the two. The music varies from quiet introspection to exuberant joy; from the comfortably familiar to the refreshingly original. Always tuneful and creatively set in the composer's well-known style, the message and the melodies of this musical carry the listener to the final exultant chorus: "Miracle of Love."
