Perhaps no Christmas poem has enjoyed as many varied musical settings as this Christina Rossetti classic. Though found in one of our choral performance series, this setting is equally at home with the church choir of moderate competence. Ê

Careful editorial suggestions breathe new life into this familiar choral gem that should be a part of every choir's repertoire. The setting most often serves as a choral benediction at the end of a service but could also find a home in services of thanksgiving and peace.

"Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" is an arrangement of the age-old tune, and strives to paint an atmospheric perspective on a fmailiar children's song. The vastness and wonder of this setting may help us to see certain questions once again through a child's eyes, and yet also hear the wisdom of a star's reply. From such a perspective, this timeless mystery can be both questioned and answered by the music.- Daniel Elder
