Noel Noel Noel bells ring out with joy! No wraps No festooned curtains spread to shield The child from frost nothing but flimsy spider webs trail from The beams aloft. He shivers in that cold stable this Jesus child so dear, and so to warm him in The cradle, The ass and ox draw near. The snow hangs down in lacy fringe. But far above The heavens swell reveal The angel choir that sings to men Noel Noel  less

The music was recorded live under The technical support of Faniry Andrianavalonome (RamoRecords) and Seta Ramaroson on January 2020. Sing, Be, Live, See. This Dark stormy hour, The wind, it stirs. The scorched earth Cries out in vain: O war and power, You blind and blur, The torn heart Cries out in pain. But music and singing Have been my refuge, And music and singing Shall be my light. A light of song Shining Strong: Allelulia! Through Darkness, pain, and strife, I'll Sing, Be, Live, See... Peace.  less

I have given this song The sub-title: "A Crazy Choral Etude for Rolled Rs and Perfect 5ths." It is meant, no pun intended, to be a musical lark, great fun for a choir to sing, rolling Rs like crazy, with no holding back. NB: One day I woke up to The realization that I had independently written four choral works, each of which had evoked a different season, and so it seemed natural to group Them togeTher into a choral suite that I have called "The Ottawa Four Seasons Suite." "Let's sing, it's Spring!", with its rousing coda section, works perfectly as The closing number of this suite. Also of note, in early 2018, I applied to be a participant at one of The Vancouver Chamber Choir's Interplay workshops funded by The SOCAN Foundation and to my delight I was accepted. "Let's sing, it's Spring!" was one of The pieces that this amazing choir sight read for me on The sp...    less
