Both songs share a spirit of communal celebration, and this arrangement brings them together in a lively musical dialogue. Kingsland’s setting expands the material into a grand, sparkling tapestry, featuring energetic counterpoint among the voices and virtuosic instrumental writing. The result is a vibrant, kaleidoscopic celebration capturing the warmth and irrepressible spirit of Christmastime.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr style=\"border: none; border-top: 1px solid #333; margin: 10px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePremiere: December 2025 – Denver, Colorado\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eStrings of Brigid\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e: Jennifer Kingsland, Chappell Kingsland, Karie Phillips, Adria Young, Crystal Schneckenburger, Kevin McFarland\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cb\u003eScore Preview\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1XDonV5kSPJLuMIXRbSsvifJ2GYbzJT2H\/preview\" width=\"100%\" height=\"1200\" style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc;\"\u003e\n\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wild Beautiful Music Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45162588143650,"sku":null,"price":3.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/7256\/3490\/files\/ChristmascarolersinKillarney_ssnow.png?v=1775276779","url":"https:\/\/wildbeautifulmusic.com\/products\/christmas-in-killarney-here-we-come-a-wassailing-arr-kingsland","provider":"Wild Beautiful Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
