Once again, Romeocat has yet another beautiful Advent post. Here's a musical intro for you. Just play the following as an accompaniment to her citation of the lyrics to "O Come Little Children".
This mp3 is from a live radio performance/demo of music from an album "For the Love of a Baby" by Martha Gallagher. See/listen to/buy CDs of her music here. The tune is by Johann (Abraham Peter) Shulz, 1747-1800. As far as I know, the author of the lyrics is unknown. Anyone know who the author was? BTW, Martha Gallagher is joined in this piece by Sue Grimm on flute. They play it considerably up-tempo from how I'd have children sing it, but it's a nice piece, very nicely played. |
