In Celebration of the Human Voice - The Essential Musical Instrument

El Desembre Congelat

Traditional Catalan Carol

El Desembre Congelat

Painting the scene of a cold and windy December night and the birth of the Christ-child or Rose, this Catalonian carol is set for young male voices using both the Catalan language and English. Supported with a flowing piano accompaniment, the melody is shared by both parts and joined by a simple descant where the option of a cappella singing is given.
