This captivating Christmas offering by Mary Lynn Lightfoot possesses flowing melodic lines, warm harmonic colors and an expressive accompaniment. This work is elegantly framed with a lyrical opening and closing section, while featuring a vibrant, more rhythmic middle section which provides interest and movement. Employing the beloved Robert Herrick text and quoted portions of the traditional English carol, The First Noel, this piece will perfectly capture the gentle mood of the season and is equally effective for school or church use on December concerts/services. |
