A dimly lit stable housed an infant King, a helpless Baby with the lineage of a Lion.This King was like no other king to ever rule the earth.But the great mystery before us? What kind of King and how would this King come?

This work for solo soprano, solo cello and mixed chorus (SATB with divisi) was first performed at the University College Dublin Foundation Day celebration in November 2013, and later recorded by the Choral Scholars of UCD, directed by Desmond Early (SIGCD436). Dedicated to Dr Hugh Brady, former President of UCD, the musical painting of the text evokes the wonder and possibility of life.
