While the familiar PUER NOBIS NASCITUR tune is often associated with the Easter season, it can also be sung with text appropriate for Christmas. This lively and vibrant arrangement from Brenda Austin is an example of that alternative use, vividly depicting the joy and excitement surrounding Christ’s birth. 100 measures. Key of C Major.
