About the Score

I was introduced to this tune from a beautiful children's picture book illustrated by Frances Tyrrell. The imagery of the Christ child appearing in a far-removed cultural context was eye-opening as I considered the blonde-haired, blue-eyed Jesus I knew. I was delighted to find a lesser-known, hauntingly beautiful, and fresh Christmas piece in the face of more familiar carols. It was like re-discovering the nativity story for the first time through someone else's perspective. Blanchet Catholic School, Salem Oregon 2005 Redmond Chorale, Seattle Washington 2015
