The Huron Carol

Traditional, arranged by Richard Hubbard

SATB Choir and Piano

Cat. No. 991


This haunting yet simple arrangement of the traditional Canadian Huron Carol evokes the atmosphere of the Canadian forests. Christ's birth is depicted using imagery that the Huron indians could relate to: "within a lodge of broken bark", "a ragged robe of rabbit skin enwrapped his beauty round".

The four verses are each given a different setting, including one a capella, and there is an extended ending. Although in four parts, this arrangement was written with non-music-readers in mind, and can be learnt very quickly by most choirs

Prices for printed music include UK postage and packing.
