Lovely and lush, Farrell's unaccompanied choral arrangement of this venerable classic Christmas chant stays ever respectful of the original even while venturing into contemporary harmonies. After stating the unison melody in the first verse, the tune moves effortlessly from voice to voice as the composer utilizes traditional harmonic devices like organum and drone to evoke the tune's chant origins, even while spinning more complex harmonization. A real treat for the choir, the listener, and anyone who loves this Christmas tune.
