A New Heart for Christmas - Score and CD

Composer(s): Mann, Kenn;

A young boy in a hospital room waits... worried, troubled. Is he high enough on "the list?ö Will he qualify for a new heart before his old one gives out? He wonders if he will live or die. It's Christmas time, and he asks not for toys or gifts, but for a new heart. By the end of this moving and emotional drama for choir, soloists, and orchestra, the boy has discovered that we all need a new heart, and it is the Babe of Bethlehem who gladly gives one to each who asks for it in faith. The music written by Kenny Mann is stunning in its ability to communicate the gospel in a fresh and dynamic way. These songs simply glow with the excitement that comes from knowing Christ Jesus personally. The vocal arrangements are designed to work for the volunteer choir, not for professional studio singers. And the orchestrations provide a magnificent, scintillating backdrop for the musical.
