(L'Adieu des Bergers) from L'Enfance du Christ. Composed by Hector Berlioz. Arranged by Mel Orriss. Flutets series. Score and parts. Wonderful Winds #B016. Published by Wonderful Winds (WN.B016).ISBN 9790570743599.
This beautiful carol depicts the shepherds saying goodbye to Jesus as the Holy family leave Bethlehem for Egypt. In this setting, the first verse is true to the original work, and in the second verse the carol is heard as a trio, with a solo flute adding a descant. The introduction to each verse and the closing few bars may be played by solo players in a larger group for variety.
