Designed to open a Christmas concert, A Christmas Herald starts with a fanfare that introduces a lyrical theme, which eventually turns out to be a descant to Hark, the Herald Angels Sing, which is subsequently introduced by trombones and euphoniums. The famous carol then gradually transforms back into the fanfare, which closes the work as it began.

A Christmas Herald, een openingswerk voor een kerstconcert, begint met een proclamerende fanfare. Deze fanfare introduceert een lyrisch thema, dat uiteindelijk uitmondt in een discant over Hark, the Herald Angels Sing,een melodie die achtereenvolgens wordt gepresenteerd door de trombones en euphoniums. De beroemde carol gaat vervolgens langzaam weer over in de fanfare, waarmee het werk eindigt zoals het begon.

A Christmas Herald beginnt mit einer Signalfanfare; diese stellt ein lyrisches Thema vor, das sich bald als Diskant zu Hark, the Herald Angels Sing herausstellt, welches anschliessend von Posaunen und Euphonien prasentiert wird. Dann verwandelt sich das berühmte Weihnachtslied schrittweise zurück in die Fanfare, die das Werk so beendet, wie es begann. Eine wunderbare Eroffnung für ein Weihnachtskonzert!

Cette composition est ideale pour debuter ou clore un concert de Noel. A Christmas Herald (Le Messager de Noel) debute avec une fanfare majestueuse qui cede sa place a l'exposition d'un theme lyrique qui forme un contrechant au noel Hark, the Herald Angels Sing (Ecoutez le chant des Anges) introduit par les trombones et l'euphonium. La melodie de ce celebre chant de noel revient progressivement vers la fanfare initiale qui clot l'œuvre sur un ton toujours aussi solennel.
