Volume 2 of Baroque Wedding Music for String Trio includes many beautiful
  pieces that are probably new to the string trio repertoire, either because
  they were written for larger ensembles, or they were written for keyboard
  performance. The pieces are suitable for processionals, prelude music, and
  for elegant reception music.  Of
  course, they are useful for all occasions.

45 Christmas Carols for String Quartet

Voice Subcategory

This piece is a five-part canon using the text "This is my Son, my
  beloved, in whom is all my delight. Listen to him." This is suitable for
  Sundays such as Baptism of the Lord and Transfiguration. The piece is highly
  flexible for EQUAL or MIXED voices, with instruments doubling voices or
  adding more layers of the canon. Guitar and piano both work well, especially
  to add rhythmic impulse to the piece. A percussion part is scored but can
  improvised. Because of the ease of putting this together, it makes an ideal
  piece for a choir returning after a Christmas break.

This is my Son

Unison Octavo

A beautiful, reverent choral hymn combining a portion of the Requiem Communion Lux aeterna with two stanzas of the WWI poem by Laurence Binyon For the fallen; suitable for Memorial Day, Remembrance Day, funerals, memorial services

Lux aeterna

Psalm 29 is a text associated with the  Baptism of the Lord, traditionally the end of the Christmas season and beginning of Ordinary Time or the season after the Epiphany. This setting begins and ends quietly, but has a dramatic and powerful climax in the middle.  It is relatively easy for the choir to master while the organist has a nearly constant flow of 16th notes underneath the slower moving voices.

Psalm 29

Ten familiar Christmas carols are set in interesting and sophisticated

  freshly harmonized, perfect for gigging, sight reading, and sing alongs.

10 Christmas Carols for various quartets, vol. 3

The "Caccini" Ave Maria was actually written in the 1970's by
  Vladimir Vavilov, an early music scholar and performer in the Soviet Union.
  The piece is a lovely invention he recorded and which was, after Vavilov's
  death, falsely attributed to Caccini by a colleague.  The original text only uses the words
  "Ave Maria", or "Hail, Mary". This edition adds more text
  from this traditional prayer (Luke 1: 28, 42) and an obbligato melody unique to
  this arrangement to enrich the musical texture. 
    
    
    
    The solo part can be performed by a small section of singers.  Both the solo and the piano accompaniment
  are of medium difficulty, while the chorus part is very easy to learn.
    
    
    
    A note on the state of copyright on this piece: Russia's office of
  copyright refuses to acknowledge the existence of most of Vavilov's works
  including this one, so the piece has entered the public domain.  Vavilov died childless, in poverty, and was
  largely forgotten until recent scholarship discovered his connection to this
  and other works.

Ten more Christmas carols arranged for string trio; these are
  full-sounding arrangements with rich harmonies and interesting accompaniments
  to the melodies.  Use for easy
  incorporation into holiday music sets and sing-alongs. Sight-readable for
  professionals and easily achievable for advanced students.

10 Christmas Carols for String Trio vol. 4

Ten familiar carols are arranged here for various quartets of wind,
  brass, and string instruments.  All
  carols are arranged in four parts, so any combination of four instruments may
  play together. The keys are pitched in reasonable singing keys, as well, so
  that they may be used for concert or church service singing. These also serve
  as nice sight-reading pieces for band during the holiday season.  You have permission to make copies of the
  parts as needed for your organization.
