He had already explored art forms of the past in adaptations of early music, re-creations and free works based on Gregorian chants. In this piece, he assigned the medieval verses to three soloists - the angel, the Virgin Mary, and the shepherd - as well as a chamber choir. Accompanied by selected woodwind instruments reminiscent of the music of Italian shepherds, and by four-handed piano and triangle, the miracle of Christmas is brought to life in a simple yet impressive way.Francesco Paolo Frontini is remembered less for his compositions than for his many collections of Sicilian folk songs. From his Canti religiosi del popolo siciliano (Religious Songs of the Sicilian People, published in 1938), a collection of 22 songs for voice and piano underlaid with Sicilian dialect verses and their Italian translations, Howard Arman selected eight songs and arranged them for choir and instruments. Like Frontini, who already included regional variants from Catania, Palermo, and other parts of the Mediterranean island, Arman also arranged different regional versions of two songs.The melody of the Italian Marian carol O sanctissima, which is one of the most popular Christmas carols in the German-speaking countries with it's opening verse O du frohliche, could possibly also have originated from Sicily. The arrangement is once again by Howard Arman.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLauda Per la Natività Del Signore-Pastor, Voie Che Vegghiate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLauda Per la Natività Del Signore-E de Ciò Ve DO in Segno\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLauda Per la Natività Del Signore-Segnor, Tu Se' Disceso\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLauda Per la Natività Del Signore-Ecco Quilla Stallecta\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLauda Per la Natività Del Signore-O Car Dolce Mio Figlio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLauda Per la Natività Del Signore-Figliuol, T'ho Partorito\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLauda Per la Natività Del Signore-Gloria\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLauda Per la Natività Del Signore-Contenti N'andremo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLauda Per la Natività Del Signore-Vogliove Consolare\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLauda Per la Natività Del Signore-Gloria in Excelsis Deo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eO Sanctissima\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCanzonetta Dei Pastori, for Chorus ; Piano (From \"Canti Relgiosi Del Popolo Siciliano\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNascita Del Bambino Gesù, for Chorus ; Piano (From \"Canti Relgiosi Del Popolo Siciliano\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCanzone Di Natale, for Chorus ; Piano (From \"Canti Relgiosi Del Popolo Siciliano\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGesù Bambino, for Chorus ; Piano (From \"Canti Relgiosi Del Popolo Siciliano\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNascita Del Bambino Gesù, for Chorus ; Piano (From \"Canti Relgiosi Del Popolo Siciliano\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLitania E Pastorale Della Cornamusa, for Chorus ; Piano (From \"Canti Relgiosi Del Popolo Siciliano\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Gesù Bambino, for Chorus ; Piano (From \"Canti Relgiosi Del Popolo Siciliano\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePastorale, for Chorus ; Piano (From \"Canti Relgiosi Del Popolo Siciliano\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSogno D'or\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4035719005332\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Br Klassiks\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10.3.25\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Vinyl Revival Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53234603688096,"sku":"4035719005332","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0526\/5899\/5360\/files\/4445214-3422588.jpg?v=1770366245","url":"https:\/\/vinylrevivalrecordstore.com\/products\/bavarian-radio-chorus-respighi-lauda-per-la-nativita-del-signore-fronti-cd","provider":"Vinyl Revival Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
