Description
I wrote the original song An Exmas Carol, for alto and guitar, on Christmas day 1984. It takes the melody of "O Little Town of Bethlehem" in the guitar part and the voice has its own tune lamenting the fact that we have ceased to hear or understand the message of the Christmas story. This recording is my own performance of the song.
Versions are also available for clarinet and guitar and for flute and guitar.
