Approximate duration: 3:50
Allows time for both tunes and their accompanying figures to unfold in performance.

Independent shopping perspective
Jim Palmer’s “A Child for Three Kings” weaves “Greensleeves” and “We Three Kings” into one holiday string-orchestra selection. The writing gives each string part both melodic passages and accompaniment figures, so rehearsal attention can move around the ensemble rather than settling in one section. With a 3:50 duration, it has room to develop its combined themes and harmonies as part of a Christmas performance.
