for SATB unaccompanied
In this gentle arrangement of Still, still, still, Remel Derrick underpins the melody of the traditional Austrian carol with contemporary harmonies, creating a warm and refreshing soundscape. A soaring descant enriches the second verse, while the use of the vocable 'doo' adds a touch of barbershop style.
A graduate of Southwestern Christian College and Abilene Christian University, Remel Derrick is the Associate Director of Choirs at Abilene High School, Texas, where he shares in the responsibilities of directing both varsity and non-varsity choirs, and teaching AP Music Theory.
