                O Little Town of Bethlehem



                        Words Phillips Brooks            Music Michael Brand





        Phillips Brooks was born in Boston, USA and spent his life there as a Christian
        Minister.    His carol, "O Little Town of Bethlehem", was written for his Sunday

        School in 1868.
        Michael Brand’s new setting imagines the sleeping town in a lullaby.
        Opening solos lead to more with choral backing followed by a four part canon and

        ends with a tutti soprano descant against the reiterated unison tune.
