This arrangement was commissioned for “a community that sings!” to promote singing folk songs from around the world and by all levels of singers. This arrangement may be sung in unison, or with three equal treble or low voices.

The choral writing is appropriately warm to the subject, and the unison verses help create clarity and the spirit of sharing. Truly inspired! Score and Parts (solo vn, solo vc, vn 1-2, vc, db) available as a digital download.

Ruth Elaine Schram has a special gift for writing memorable melodies. This piece is no exception as she tenderly cradles a picturesque text with exquisite tuneful beauty. The contrasting middle section is a challenge for all to hurry and behold the Savior: “Run, run, run to Bethlehem! See this thing which has come to pass...” Then the quietness of the manger returns with a quote from the familiar carol: “O come, let us adore Him.” The optional flute part adds a lovely shimmer to this beautiful nocturne. “Shepherd's Carol” is a must for your Christmas programming.
