The Holy Child

A cantata for S.A.T.B. and piano, orchestral, or midi accompaniment with solos for 1 soprano, 1 alto, and 1 baritone

When we have a birthday it is not a baby we celebrate, it is the person we have become.  The Holy Child is more than a celebration of a baby in a manger.  It is a celebration of who He has become.  From Isaiah´s prophecy to the amen of the saints in Revelation, The Holy Child takes us on a sweeping journey through the life of Jesus from baby in the manger to the King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

The Holy Child has been performed over 25 times in 9 different countries.  The Annunciation/The Magnificat from the cantata was released on a Christmas CD by the Norwegian Choir, Sola Fide in November 2005.  The CD is available here.  The Cantata was also performed at Gospelnacht in January of 2003.
