SOUNDS OF THE SEASON Website graphic.jpg

Sounds of the Season is a unique publication featuring 12 magnificent Christmas carol arrangements for solo instrument or voice and piano by Kenneth Downie, William Himes and Andrew Wainwright. High quality full orchestral backing tracks are also available. This resource will be ideal for soloists wishing to carol on a street corner or in a shopping mall while playing the backing tracks through a speaker, or equally in a concert setting accompanied by a pianist.

​

Each solo also comes complete with high quality full orchestral accompaniment tracks, available as either MP3 or WAV. These stunning accompaniments have been mixed using the finest orchestral sounds, including the BBC Symphony Orchestra, Berlin Orchestra, Spitfire Symphony Orchestra and Royal Albert Hall Organ, giving soloists the experience of performing with a full live orchestra! This re-issue (released in October 2024) replaces the original tracks that were launched in 2021.

​

Soloist books are available in the following transpositions: C, Bb, Eb, F, Bass Clef (concert pitch).

 

A Vocal book is also available, although separate accompaniment tracks are provided for these due to variances in the arrangements. Please note the accompaniment tracks have not been re-issued for the vocal solo versions.

​

The following carols are included:

Angels from the Realms of Glory (Regent Square) 

Away in a Manger 

Good Christian Men, Rejoice 

Hark! The Herald Angels Sing  

In the Bleak Midwinter 

Infant Holy, Infant Lowly 

Jingle Bells 

O Little Town of Bethlehem (St Louis)

Still, Still, Still 

The Holly and the Ivy

We Wish You a Merry Christmas!

Also available for download is a Soloist Showcase Album featuring performances of each solo by many of BrookWright Music's outstanding 'Artists in Association'.
