A Child This Day
A Christmas Cantata by Benjamin Harlan
Voicing: SATB
The triumphant opening "Prepare the Way of the Lord" sets the tone for this joyous and celebratory Christmas cantata. A Children's choir is featured in two sections, bringing innocence and simplicity to the telling of the story. It displays some of Harlan's best writing and truly a signature work.
Songs include
Prepare the Way of the Lord, My Soul Magnifies the Lord, A Child this Day, Hush My Babe Lie Still and Slumber, O Sing a Song of Bethlehem, The Wise May Bring Their Learning, and O Come All Ye Faithful.
