Charles E. Peery, Conductor

From tried and true carols such as "Still, Still, Still" to carols you may not yet know, you are sure to find a new holiday favorite among these selections. The Gateway Ringers are entering their seventeenth year and "A Time to Rejoice" marks their second CD project, the first being"A Time to Dance" in 2001. Their reputation for audience-friendly programming is represented here, with a wide variety of moods and tone colors. Chant-like melodies appear in "Come, Emmanuel," a Latin influence is heard in "A La Nanita Nana," and flute, harp, and bassoon join the bells for Corelli's "Pastorale" from the Christmas Concerto. Two harps and bells are heard in the unpublished "Fantasy on Sleepers, Wake!" Also featured are pieces written specifically for The Gateway Ringers, such as "Medieval Procession," "That Night in Bethlehem," and "Bring A Torch, Jeannette, Isabella."
