About Dormi o Celeste
Carlotta Ferrari's Dormi o Celeste paints a tender Christmas scene, with words expressing the gentle contemplation of the newborn Christ. The Italian text speaks of the infant king, hidden in humble repose, whose divine heritage will one day be recognised by all peoples. The composer sets this devotional text for SATB choir, creating a sacred work that evokes the quiet wonder of the Nativity. Ferrari's musical setting allows the choir to convey the profound message of hope and salvation inherent in the Christmas narrative. This piece offers a moment of serene reflection, perfect for the Advent and Christmas seasons.
