Looking for a Christmas piece that will bring fresh energy, colour, and joy to your choir concert? A Brazilian Christmas Medley is a vibrant choral work that reimagines beloved Christmas hymns through the irresistible rhythms of Brazil.
Commissioned by conductor Natalie Brando and first performed by the choir of First Evangelical Free Church in Calgary, this medley combines familiar Christmas melodies with the warmth of bossa nova, the drive of baião, and the excitement of frevo. The result is a festive, rhythmically engaging, and highly memorable piece that brings a completely new flavour to the Christmas repertoire.
Full of joyful contrasts, rhythmic surprises, and colourful choral textures, the piece even includes a fugue in baião style, making it both fun to sing and exciting for the audience to experience. Choirs that have performed this work have consistently received enthusiastic responses from both singers and listeners.
A Brazilian Christmas Medley is an excellent choice for university choirs, community choirs, church choirs, and Christmas concerts looking for something fresh, uplifting, and unforgettable. It can work beautifully as a concert highlight or as an energetic closing piece that leaves the audience smiling.
If you are looking for a Christmas choral work that feels familiar and surprising at the same time, this is the piece.
