Beschreibung

This simple carol for two-part upper voices was commissioned by Jenni Wake-Walker in 2008 and is a setting of an anonymous 15th century text celebrating the Nativity. It was written specifically for children of primary schoolage, and with this in mind may be transposed up or down a semitone, depending on the vocal ranges available. The accompaniment, a gently undulating ostinato which remains constant throughout, is intended for a piano, harp, ororgan and might also be played by a child.
