Joseph's Carol
This carol recounts the Christmas story from the perspective of Joseph. Two expressive verses are taken by the solo baritone, with the chorus performing a refrain infused with expectancy and wonder. In the closing words of the second solo, the choir takes on the role of the angels in a soft accompaniment. The upper three voice parts are designed to be approximately equal in strength, and the carol may be accompanied by organ or small orchestra. This carol is dedicated to the Oxford Vaccine Team and was premiered by Sir Bryn Terfel, The Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra, and the Choir of Merton College in a special tribute concert.
