Camille van Lunen
The Nativity
Instrumentation: high voice and piano
Edition: score
Year: 2008
Duration: 5′
Peace? and to all the world? sure, One
And He the Prince of Peace, hath none.
He travels to be born, and then
Is born to travel more again…
The striking modernity of The Nativity, by Welsh metaphysical poet Henry Vaughan (1621–1695), is captured perfectly in Camille van Lunen‘s limpid and compelling setting of this searching account of Christ‘s nativity.
This piece is also available for medium voice (a note down).
