Description:
Any combination of equal voices will welcome singing the traditional Spanish carol “Pastores Velan” in this unique bilingual arrangement. Part 1 begins in English (solo voice) with each verse incorporating more Spanish until all are singing “Con alegra reverencia… adorar al Niño…” in the final verse.
Minimal range would make this piece fun for 3-part children’s voices.
A very cool piece that will linger in listeners’ ears!
