Dorme Bambino Gesu (HL 232886)

Dorme Bambino Gesu (HL 232886)

This is the perfect piece for the Christmas Eve service, a lullaby, tender and sweet. A gentle piano accompaniment supports the choir's “oo's” as a female soloist presents the verse, sung in either Italian or English. The choir then sings an elegant refrain in Italian, followed by a male solo, leading to the choir's final cadence. A sacred piece for church that could also be used in many secular situations. Easy to medium in difficulty.
