Reseña del editor:

Mirabile Dictu is from Sasha Johnson Manning's The Manchester Carols, with text by Carol Ann Duffy, the Poet Laureatea large scale concert piece which reshapes and modernises the Christmas story to make it relevant to modern society. The piece was written to acknowledge that whilst not everyone embraces the religion behind the Nativity story, everyone can appreciate it as an inspiring, magical tale. The carols are for everyone, believers or not and are a popular Christmas choice for choirs looking for a large scale concert piece. Published as a stand alone piece, Mirabile Dictu, is the first carol in the collection, and is written for accompanied SATB choir. This piece is from Faber's Choral Signature series which introduces a wealth of new or recently written choral music to choirs in search of fresh repertoire. the series draws in a rich diversity of living composers and includes both lighter and more challenging contemporary works, offering a thrilling array of varied styles.
