Hear The Angels Sing
$29.95
This bright, up-tempo march is based on two melodies for the carol “It Came upon a Midnight Clear” – “Noel” by Arthur Sullivan (1874) and “Carol” by Richard Willis (1850). These words, written by Edmund Sears in 1849, beautifully describe the scene when the angels declared to the world that a savior had been born.
