for SATB and organ or orchestra

This bright and exultant arrangement of Michael Praetorius's melody 'Puer nobis nascitur' is presented with two text options: 'O splendor of God's glory bright' for general worship and 'That Easter day with joy was bright' for use at Easter. Sparkling organ interludes, characterised by flutes and piccolos in the orchestral accompaniment, punctuate the lilting melody, which is given contrasting treatment in each of the verses, from presentation in unison to rich four-part harmony.
