Description
John Rutter's arrangement of Gruber's Silent Night is a warm and gentle accompaniment for SATB choirs and piano.
The piece begins with simple, arpeggiated figures accompanying the first two verses before building to a more profound final verse, scored for solo voices. This arrangement was recorded by the Cambridge Singers, directed by John Rutter, on their Christmas album.
Conductor's scores and instrumental parts are available from the publisher, as is an alternative unaccompanied version of the carol.
