Question about repertoire information from ACDA OKC

Submitted by Austen_Wilson on Fri, 04/03/2009 - 11:55.

During the ACDA Convention in OKC, Cantoria Alberto Grau sang part of a Venezuelan (?) Christmas carol during their interest session. Does anyone know the title/arranger/publisher?

Cantoria Alberto Grau - Venezuelan Carol . . .

Submitted by Shane_Sanderson on Fri, 05/29/2009 - 07:43.

If you are referring to a carol that ended with a refrain of "Ol-lo-le, O-lo-lai" (or something like it), the name of the piece is Nuestra Navidades. It is written by Jesus Ochoa and arranged by Alberto Grau. As I recall, CAG ended their second concert session with this piece, but did not perform it in the first.

We offer a recording of the piece for download. You may sample it and purchase it HERE

Hope that helps!

Thanks! The added information helps a lot, although I am still having a hard time finding it. I've checked jwpepper, earthsongs, and Santa Barbara Publishing. However, I will continue looking!
