for SATB and organ
Archer's jubilant setting of a traditional Polish text features changing metres, textural contrasts, and compelling shifts between major and minor. Strophic in form and with a catchy refrain characterized by a sprightly dotted rhythm, this carol is the perfect way to ensure that the congregation or audience will be filled with the spirit of rejoicing!
