Flowing accompaniment, memorable melodies, and an optional flute descant paint the picture of the shepherds announcing Jesus' birth. With the inclusion of "Angels We Have Heard on High," and opportunities to feature soloists, "Shepherd, Do You Sleep?" will inspire celebration throughout the Christmas season. (Adapted from the cantata "And This Shall Be a Sign;" SATB -- 65/2002L, SAB -- 65/2003L.).
