Will Todd's Softly is a tranquil carol that captures the peace and spirit of Christmas. Through subtle suspensions, modulations, and time signature changes, it brings musical interest, also, and will appeal to a wide range of choirs. The piece was recorded for the CD Lux et Veritas by the group Tenebrae in 2014.
