An energetic Christmas arrangement for violin and viola. In this piece we combine two of our favorite hymns, The Holly and and O Savior Thou Who Wearest a Crown. You might notice the prickle of the holly berry and remember our beloved Savior who wore that crown of thorns as you perform this piece for your next Christmas gathering with friends.

This arrangement for two violins is a joyful dance of Let Zion in Her Beauty Rise. Imagine the pioneers exhausted after a long day, and yet filled with hope and energy for some celebratory dancing around the fire before resting. Their faith must have been so powerful. We hope this arrangement brings some life to your soul and the audience who gets to experience this dance of faith.

A sacred, silent night with twinkling stars is what we tried to capture in this arrangement for two violins. All is calm and bright as the shepherds, wise men, Mary and Joseph, and peaceful animals surround the greatest gift our world has ever known. This is the perfect hymn arrangement for any Christmas gathering with loved ones.

Our Beautiful Savior is our light, our hope, our everything. He shines brighter and purer and gives to all the world his forever love. This arrangement is the sincerity and genuine love of Him through a child’s eyes. Perhaps you will see the beautiful light that surrounds us, or hear birds singing praises and gratitude. Or perhaps a music box lullaby soothing a baby to sleep on the second verse. Whatever you hear, we hope to express the perfect beauty of our Savior and brother Jesus Christ.

Kingsfold is another name for the timeless hymn, If You Could Hie to Kolob. The floating melody above a bagpipe drone depicts the sacred and beautiful experiences of eternal life. The winding ups and downs in the middle verse represents the earthly life that we all go through, the learning, the growth, the love, the hope. We have nothing to fear because we are all a part of one eternal round. A timeless journey, there is no end to truth.

VIOLIN/VIOLA. As we started to put this arrangement together we imagined a small family of pioneers crossing the American plains. During the introduction, verses, and ending we tried to portray this family’s relentless and plodding footsteps in the viola part. The interludes between verses capture the young mother and father reflecting on their journey at the end of an exhausting day. Perhaps contemplating both the difficulty of their task as well as their love for each other, and their hope in the Savior.
