Description:
Steven Van Wye’s setting of “Quem stella sole pulchrior” skillfully illuminates this text announcing Christ’s birth. The legato movement in both the choral writing and the organ accompaniment captures the spirit of that peaceful scene. The inclusion of a soprano descant and a crescendo in dynamics for all forces in the final verse elevates the emotion to one of joyful praise.
