Pastorella: Offertory for Christmas Parvulus filius / Behold the Little Child 4-Part - Sheet Music
The text, Isaiah 9:6, is found as the offertory for Christmas in the Roman Missal. The music is pure classical period - think Haydn, to whom this piece, incidentally, has been wrongly attributed. Scored for organ and choir, with three strings and two trombones, it includes both Latin and English texts. SATB. GIA is pleased to offer this edited and translated version of the Christmas offertory "Parvulus filius" by Franz Schneider. Based on research from the Melk archive of the Benedictine monastery in Lower Austria, Jane Hettrick has prepared a fantastic edition of this little-known historical gem. The text is provided in both Latin and English, and a continuo of two violins, cello, and two trombones (which double the alto and tenor voices) is also available. Editorial slurs and articulations are also provided.
