Presented this the year it premiered, with Joe workshopping our choir. This year seems to a great time to do it again as we come out of the pandemic. After all this, it really is time to Let There Be Christmas!

Hello I need to buy the complete SATB score, the StudioTrax accompanying CD, and the RehearsalTrax CDs. Where can I buy this package?

[@halleonardandshawneepressc4412]

Hello.. you can order this from any music retailer: www.halleonard.com/product/35030338/let-there-be-christmas

[@emersonsantana7802]

Onde posso adquirir?❤

[@AndrewKullberg]

My church choir is going to be performing this for our cantata this December. The vocal scores and consort orchestration CD both came in the mail today. I looked at the conductor score and the piano accompaniment part is written in along with the other instrument parts. Is the piano accompaniment supposed to be played along with the rest of the instruments? It doubles a lot of parts, but still adds lower octaves that are not covered by the trombones or keyboard strings.

[@halleonardandshawneepressc4412]

Yes, we typically write the piano accompaniment to double many of the instruments in our consort orchestrations. We recognize that churches utilizing a consort have some instrumentalists, but, most likely, not a huge number. So, it is usually helpful to have the piano act as a “backdrop" for instruments that might be unavailable. So, the piano can be played throughout the entire score, or, if you prefer, you may ask the pianist to "lay out" during sections that feature available instrumentalists. Thanks so much for purchasing Joe’s cantata, and blessings on your ministry!

[@nelmnelmernelmest2010]

Can we also have the minus one of the songs? Thanks

[@hatami13]

[@andreilucaci8743]

Hi. Is it possible to buy the songs from the cantata separately? The orchestration of The Divine Expectation and Arise

[@li-renyap9163]

Hi. Could I seek clarification on the following statement: 'Not to be used in conjunction with any performance'. Many thanks and blessings

[@seraph127]

I am guessing that this applies to the video demonstration here.

[@halleonardandshawneepressc4412]
