About the Composer: Alan Billingsley

Alan Billingsley

Alan Billingsley brings decades of professional arranging and composing experience across entertainment, broadcast, and education. His work spans Disney theme parks, television productions including the NBC daytime series "Days of Our Lives," Broadway-style musicals, and corporate theatrical events. Seven of his compositions have received Grammy consideration, and his arrangements populate educational choral catalogs nationwide.

Billingsley holds a degree in music and psychology from Indiana University and maintains a fully digital recording studio in Los Angeles, where he continues producing educational choral material alongside commercial projects. He has served as a clinician at Disneyland's "Magic Music Days" and worked as music director for live television broadcasts and touring artists.

Why we love this

Billingsley's gift for medley writing shines here: each carol connects smoothly while retaining its own character, giving your choir multiple recognizable moments without feeling rushed or choppy. The inclusion of movement and staging suggestions means you're not starting from scratch choreographically, and the availability of recorded accompaniment lets singers focus on blend and confidence rather than tracking a live pianist during rehearsal.

What to expect

A medley that sparkles without losing its footing. Billingsley threads familiar Christmas melodies together in a way that feels natural and celebratory, with moments of genuine warmth alongside the brightness. There's room for both choral polish and physical expressiveness, so the piece feels alive beyond just voices.

Who it's for

Choirs of moderate ability looking for a holiday arrangement that balances recognizable repertoire with professional sound and visual interest. Directors who want movement and staging built into the piece will appreciate Billingsley's roadmap, and ensembles with access to instrumental reinforcement will find added dimension through the available parts.

How to get the most out of it

  • Record a rehearsal run-through with the SoundTrax accompaniment early in your rehearsal cycle so singers hear how their parts sit against the full arrangement and can adjust balances accordingly.
  • Work the staging cues in tandem with musicality, not as an afterthought; the piece's festive momentum depends on clean transitions between carols, and purposeful movement reinforces that pacing.
  • If you're using instrumental parts alongside the choir, have those musicians listen to the recorded accompaniment first so they understand the overall sonority and their role within it.
  • Lock in intonation during the unison or unison-heavy sections, as these moments anchor the listener's ear before the harmonies open up.

How to use it

Lead off your winter concert or place it as the closer before a final hymn or benediction piece to send audiences out buoyant. The medley format works especially well in community or school concerts where audiences expect a mix of carol traditions, and it's substantial enough to anchor a "holiday favorites" segment without overshadowing other selections.

Skills your students will build

  • Blending and balance across medley transitions
  • Executing choreography while maintaining vocal control
  • Rhythmic independence when accompanying instrumental parts are present
  • Sustaining ensemble intonation in major-key harmonic progressions
