Bethlehem Down
Warlock, Peter arr. Marshall
6 SATBGbCb. The carol Bethlehem Down was composed in 1927 by Peter Warlock (1894-1930) (whose real name was Philip Heseltine). It is a beautiful piece, which won the Daily Telegraph's 1927 Christmas carol contest. The chromatic movement of the parts makes Bethlehem Down a challenging work for recorder ensembles, despite its slow pulse.
