C. Michael Perry has also created a script that can be downloaded freely at his website. This script deals with a family reassuring their young son, who has been selected to play a Wiseman in the local Christmas pageant. With the full script, the Cantata should take about 40 minutes.This cantata (in all it’s forms) is free to download and perform for church groups wishing to use the piece in a Worship Service or Sacrament Meeting, or even in a public concert where no admission is charged. For other public uses of this Cantata, by School, Community, University or Professional Choirs ‘ whether admission is charged or not ‘ we ask that you pay a slight royalty charge of $15.00.
