An ethereal gentleness starts this piece that briefly recounts the story of the shepherds and the Magi. Choral writing with a dream-like quality supports the soloist. This is a great choice for that singer in your choir who can maintain a beautiful line, but perhaps does not possess a large range—optional notes are indicated at the end, when the melody may go a bit high for some. For cantor or soloist. 2 octaves Handbells or Handchimes.
