Markus J. Kiefer kindle German Christmas Carols: Baritone B.C.: Volume 19

German Christmas Carols with Lyrics in English and in German. In this edition we have assembled 36 traditional German Christmas carols, partly from Christian hymnbooks, partly from traditional folklore. A number of carols have been rendered into English for the first time, some existing English versions have been revised, and some have been taken over as they were. The German stanzas are provided next to the English version. There are also two alphabetical lists of the carols with both the English/German and the German/English first lines. Here are the first lines of the carols included: A Time Has Come Right for Us All the World, All Stars May Cheer Behold a Branch Is Growing Bells Never Sweeter Are Ringing Children, Watch Tomorrow's Wonder Christ the Child Is Coming Come Now, Ye Shepherds Come Running, Ye Shepherds Daughter Zion May Rejoice Father Christmas Calls Next Day From Heav'n Above From Heaven On High In Bethlehem, We Gather In Dulci Jubilo Joseph, Dearest Joseph Mine Let's Be Merry and Rejoice Maria Walks through Thorny Groves Merry Christmas Everywhere Now at the Manger Here I Stand O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree O Come, All Ye Faithful (Adeste Fideles) O Come, Little Children O How Joyfully Praise God the Lord Ring, Bells Silent Night, Holy Night Softly Float All the Flakes Still, Keep Still The Christmas Tree with Candles Burning There Comes a Galley Tiny Snowflake Unlock the Gates We Praise You, Jesus, From Our Heart What Does This Foreshadow When Shepherds Awoke While by My Sheep I Watched at Night Traditional German Christmas Carols „Baritone B.C.“ is just one in a series of JOIN IN-MUSIC music books for a large number of instruments and singers. JOIN IN-MUSIC is designed to allow different combinations of instruments and singers to come together and perform Christmas carols: string and wind instruments can join in with a choir, instrumental duos and trios can be formed, or singers can be accompanied by the piano or the organ. JOIN IN-MUSIC makes it easy for any musical group, be it in school, in church, in your community or in your home, to play together right away: the music of all the books is compatible. Any instrument can play the tune or the second or third voice, and all voices, including the score for the piano, are set in easy music. Thus the carols can come to life without extensive practicing.
