Our Joyful'st Feast SAATTBB a cappella 勞塔瓦拉

這首聖誕頌歌是受芬蘭廣播公司 Yle 委託創作的，由赫爾辛基室內合唱團在尼爾斯-施韋肯迪克指揮下在赫爾辛基首次演出，它取材于三個文本，兩個是威廉-莎士比亞的作品，一個是喬治-威瑟的作品。大體上同音的質地與勞塔瓦拉斯特有的豐富且經常是半音階的和聲相結合，形成了一部非常有效且令人滿意的作品，與通常的聖誕作品有些不同"

作曲家: Einojuhani Rautavaara
樂器: Choral
原文簡介:
This Christmas carol, commissioned by the Finnish broadcasting company Yle and first performed in Helsinki by Helsinki Chamber Choir, conducted by Nils Schweckendiek, is based on three texts, two by William Shakespeare and one by George Wither. The largely homophonic textures combine with Rautavaaras characteristically rich and often chromatic harmonies to form a very effective and satisfying work, a bit different from the usual Christmas offering.
