For something a little bit different
Canasg Choral Music Publishing of Scotland specialises in publishing choral and vocal music, offering a wide range of totally original settings and arrangements for choirs and vocal harmony groups; mainly a cappella, but some with instrumental accompaniment.

Canasg Music offers to choirs and groups globally-
    -new arrangements of traditional songs,
    -choral settings of lovely folk tunes from many parts of the world,
    -fine new settings of poems in Scots and English, and
    -other superb original songs.

Canasg composers are all singers as well as composers. We know what we like to sing, and what goes down well with audiences, so if your repertoire is weary, you've found the right place. Canasg Choral Music Publishing

Pick of the season
Some unusual and different Christmas pieces: 

*New for 2005

-  What child is this?     19C words by William Dix to the much older tune 'Greensleeves'

-  Tàladh Chrìosda     (Lullaby to the Christ child)  A new engraving of a beautiful and simple Gaelic carol from the Hebridean Isles of Scotland.







...and some new ideas:

-  Dies natalis invicti solis     (Sung in English) A celebration of aspects of the modern Christmas festival that pre-date Christianity.  Does this explain Santa's colour scheme?

-  A sequence of carols    Four gorgeous settings of medieval Christmas texts, with music mixing old and new idioms, by Douglas Cook.

-  Christmas canon a 6 voci    'There is no rose of such virtue'. A traditional late-medieval English text set as a six-part canon by David Johnson.  Suitable for all-male or all-female voices, or a mixed group.

-  Villanelle de Noel    A Christmas fable in Scots telling how the robin got its red breast.  Poem by Tom Scott, music by Michael Buck
