The tune BETHLEHEM is worthy of the full assembly’s involvement; this setting could well serve as a concertato arrangement with the choir setting off the stanzas with a beautiful 4-part a cappella verse.
It would also be hard to imagine this as a solo choir anthem without the unique color of the solo clarinet, oboe, or viola.
Make room in your Christmas file for this one.
