From Paul Halley’s Missa ‘Hodie Christus Natus Est’. Opening
with soprano solo intoning the Gregorian chant, the composition

impressionistic colors for which Halley is
known.

Commissioned by the Choir of Men and Boys, St. Matthew’s Church,
Ottawa, Brian Law, director. A short, jubilant choral fanfare
that derives its energy from a recurring dotted quarter-note,
eighth-note, quarter-note motive. “Throughout the composition,
Halley’s sense of drama and motion never falters; at one
minute’s duration, it would serve as an enthusiastic and
impressive opening in worship and concert settings.” – Michael
Braz, The Choral Journal

“An exciting and quite challenging arrangement of the familiar
text and tune. Rich, jazz-inspired harmonies, carefully scripted
syncopations, and a couple of tricky modulations, will keep
everyone on their toes, but could well also bring a congregation
to its feet.” – The Journal of the Association of Anglican

A fun arrangement of this traditional carol with dramatic roles
for all, including solos for the robust but saintly King, his
stammering Page, a choir of treble Angels, and storm effects for
the rest. A warm-hearted rendition of the drama with Halley’s
signature harmonies. Great
joy! |

A sprightly and joyful arrangement of this traditional French carol.
Scored for choir and organ with brass sextet and snare drum,
this arrangement has unexpected freshness. Changing tempos, key
modulations, and Halley harmonies keep the choir on their toes,
while the congregation joins in easily on the refrain. Great fun
for everyone. |

“Longfellow’s poem is a richly atmospheric text not specifically
tied to Christmas, but quite handy for a cold week sometime
after Epiphany when a ‘general’ anthem seems to be in need.
Global warming may soon put this piece out of business, but
until it does, Halley’s setting evokes the frigid air as
effectively as anything since Vivaldi’s fourth Season.” - The
Journal of the Association of Anglican Musicians
