About the Score

The Holly and the Ivy, in a madrigal style, is carol arrangement for a cappella SATB choir and tambourine. It is well suited for choirs with a range of abilities from high school, church choir, collegiate level singers, and community ensembles. The middle section features the use of alleatoric composition and is open to many creative possibilities. The final verse includes more dissonant harmonies and is inspired by thematic material that uses a harmonic progression most often recognized as Pachelbel’s “Canon.” This performance is by the Elizabethan Syngers from their album “Sing We Now of Christmas.”
