Review:
This traditional Neapolitan tune is a staple of the Advent celebration of St. Lucy’s Day, observed in Scandinavia and Italy. A gentle, flowing accompaniment leads into the simple, memorable melody, which travels throughout the ensemble as the piece unfolds. A key change leads to a final celebratory verse before the piece settles to end on a calm note once more. This piece is a perfect choice for the ensemble looking for something different this holiday season. 89 measures. Keys of Ab Major and C Major.
