A Christmas Cantata -

From the intro of the Cantata...

"THIS beautiful Cantata has been prepared expressly for the use of Musical Societies, Day Schools, Sunday Schools, and all Singing people at Holiday times. The author, Mr. W. H. DOANE, so well known as the composer of many of our most popular sacred songs,
has had an extensive experience in musical circles, in addition to successful labors as Superintendent of a very large Sunday School at Cincinnati. Mr. DOANE conceived the idea of contributing to the enjoyment of the holiday season by furnishing a Musical Entertainment which
might be given not only by the older people, but also by the Young Folks."

The whole Cantata can be readily produced at small expense, with or without costumes, full directions being given for its most effective presentation. It is within the range of any School of ordinary size, although the finest effects may be obtained by the largest concourse of singers.

The Music, with accompaniment for the piano or organ, is bright and sparkling, interspersed with Solos, Duets, Choruses, Songs by Fairies, Recitations, etc., and a veritable Santa Claus. It is confidently believed this Cantata will meet a real want of the times.
