Echoes of Christmas combines two Christmas favorites, "While by My Sheep" (Or "The Echo Carol") and "God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen." "The Echo Carol," so named because it is written in a call and response format, is presented here with initial statement by the brass which are then immediately echoed by the woodwinds. "God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen" features a canonic treatment of this holiday favorite, first in the flutes and clarinets and then the entire ensemble. Your audience will be echoing these Christmas carols long after your next holiday concert is over!
