Lulajze jezuniu

This familiar and lovely Polish carol (with both Polish and English texts) is set beautifully by Chilcott - of course! The chorus parts are simple and provide a lovely blanket of sound supporting the solo verses. The alto solo takes the melody with the soprano and tenor solos providing harmony.
