Angels We Have Heard on High

Traditional, arranged by Michael Story

Angels We Have Heard on High is a Christmas carol to the hymn tune Gloria from a traditional French song of unknown origin called Les Anges dans nos campagnes, with paraphrased English lyrics by James Chadwick. The song's subject is the birth of Jesus Christ as narrated in the Gospel of Luke, specifically the scene in which shepherds outside Bethlehem encounter a multitude of angels singing and praising the newborn child.

Photo Encore

Parents, this is a time for you to get close to the band to take pictures. We will play the last 30 seconds of our concert so you can get close to take pictures of your student.  Please don't go inside the band, but you are welcome to get up close to the end of the rows.
