Holiday Pops Music ~
FULL Orchestra & Chorus



OVERVIEW OF MY CHORUS AND FULL-ORCH. MUSIC

The pieces below are currently available, but I have many other chorus and full-orchestra pops pieces that will soon be available after I've re-formatted them into Sibelius (with a goal of being ready in fall of 2024). 

Some of my soon-to-be-available holiday pieces are “Joy to the World,” “The First Nowell,” and “Go, Tell It on the Mountain!”

Please note that all of my chorus and chamber-orchestra pieces are currently available, and many of them work well with a larger orchestra.
