This setting of an anonymous English 15th-century text recounts the act of Adam’s original sin and the subsequent events leading to the birth of Mary, the Mother of God. Reminiscent of a Renaissance motet, this short, a cappella piece starts in unison and then divides into a full SATB texture.  Useful throughout Christmastide and particularly for celebrations of Mary, Mother of God.
