This
bilingual arrangement of
Silent Night alternates
between Spanish and
English verses. Ruth pays
careful attention to
expressive phrasing,
voice leading, and
tessitura, making it easy
for school, community,
and church choirs to
prepare and perform. The
flowing piano part and an
optional flute obbligato
bring a peaceful sense of
reverence. Teach it this
year and sing it for
years to come.
