Silent Night Celebration
Bernard Wayne Sanders has composed settings of STILLE NACHT that reflect American, German, and French styles.
Bernard Wayne Sanders has composed settings of STILLE NACHT that reflect American, German, and French styles. Unique to this edition is the nomenclature provided for each style. “Three Nocturnes” hints at the existing melody. “Ciacona” is reminiscent of Buxtehude, with the bass motive shifting to different keys. “Pastorale” uses impressionistic elements, including the seventh and ninth chords, horns, and tertial harmonic relationships. This will be a great addition to Christmas worship and recital repertoire.
