John Rutter: Carol Of The Magi (cello part)

For SATB, optional baritone solo, cello, & organ or string orchestra.

This is a tuneful epiphany carol, setting a text by the composer. Underpinned by a beautiful cello solo, the vocal lines are rich and flowing, and the organ supports the choir with warm harmonies. The carol was written at the invitation of Red Balloon, a Cambridge-based UK-wide organization dedicated to the recovery of bullied children.
