Expanded edition with additional analysis. One of the best compositions by one of twentieth century Italy's best-known composers, the Laud to the Nativity stands out because of its unique pastoral instrumentation, the unusual blending of archaic and early twentieth century styles, the expressive setting of the unusual text, and the creative interweaving of dramatic and lyrical elements. Respighi skillfully combined these diverse factors to create a charming and colorful composition. A rewarding challenge to conductors and performers, the work proves to be a pleasure to learn and perform. This unique work truly deserves its place in the international repertoire and the many performances it receives each year.This Monograph seeks to assist musicians who are preparing the Laud for performance by providing them with relevant historical, analytical, and practical information about the work and its composer.
