Jesous Ahatonhia (Huron Carol)
By Anthony St. Pierre November 2006
 
S + medium voice or SS, ST, TT
 
 
The composer has set Canada's most famous Christmas carol to a descant. A performance may be strictly instrumental or may include the vocal line.

On the accompanying recording, the composer performs with boy soprano, S.S.

Duration: 1:10
-- Anthony St. Pierre
 
Play-along accompaniments (instructions are included in the recordings):
Tune (you play the descant)
Descant (you play the tune)
 
This short duo carol could be the starting point for spinning out a beautiful holiday interlude, or simply for easy fun with your playing partner. The descant part goes only up to G so it’s suitable for early intermediate players. A variety of articulations and slur patterns will keep everyone engaged.
-- Glen Shannon
