This
setting of a 17th century
English poem proclaims
the wonder of Christmas
and the oneness of all
things. While the opening
two stanzas feature broad
and expansive phrases
over an arpeggiated
accompaniment, the work's
emotional core is found
in the contrasting
section: “Welcome
all wonders in one
sight/Summer in winter,
day in night”
before the final
recapitulation of the
opening strains.
Available separately:
SATB, SAB, SSA. Duration:
ca. 3:20.
