This beautiful 14th century French carol has been newly arranged into a magnificent work for women's choir. The opening and closing verses feature an almost abbey-like choral treatment over a piano drone. As the piece progresses, the choral lines become increasingly intricate, climaxing in a wholly new melody, while retaining the original 14th century feel. This work was included on the CD The World Awaits: Songs for a Winter's Night, released by eleven eleven Productions.
