O Little Town Of Bethlehem

From Plank Road Publishing

arr. Karl Hitzemann

This is not the melody you're used to. Rather, it's the English hymn tune, "Forest Green," which was adapted by Ralph Vaughan Williams. While this version of "O Little Town Of Bethlehem" is sometimes performed here in the United States, it is much more widely used in the United Kingdom.

We've created a 2-part arrangement of this lovely melody. As you'll hear on the full performance track, we start with a soloist. You could take the solo further, or you could feature a few different soloists (or small group) throughout the entire first verse. A rehearsal track for part 2 (which is optional) is included with the kit. (from Music K-8, Vol. 33, No. 2)
