Review:
Three Latin American carols are featured in this mini-folio: "Oh, Sleep Now, Holy Baby," which is based on A LA RU; "Come, Shepherds, Come," a setting of a Puerto Rican folk melody; and "From a Distant Home" (or "The King the Wise Men Found"), also a setting of a traditional Puerto Rican melody. Optional chimes are scored in each tune. The pieces average 72 measures.
