Added by magataganm, 08 Dec 2011 "Riu, Riu, Chiu" is a 16th Century Spanish villancico by an anonymous composer. The villancico is attributed by some sources to Mateo Flecha the Elder, who died in 1553. The villancico is verse, set to popular dance rhythms, depicting pastoral Nativity scenes with a country flavor (animals and shepherds). This traditional Spanish Christmas carol in honor of the Blessed Virgin Mary is of the type known as a 'villancico', dating from the 16th century. The song is a lesson in Catholic doctrine on the Immaculate Conception of Our Lady as well as the birth of Our Lord who came to redeem the world from the guilt of sin. This arrangement for the Sierra Vista United Methodist Church (SVUMC) is to be sung by a lone male voice, with the main choir singing the chorus. Sheet central : | Ríu Ríu Chíu (4 sheet music) | |
