MOON OF WINTER SOR GR 3

The Huron Carol is Canada's oldest Christmas carol written in 1643 by Jean de BrÈbeuf, a Jesuit missionary. The melody is from a traditional French folk song, "Une Jeune Pucelle" (A Young Maid). Intended as a gift and teaching aid to the Huron people, BrÈbeuf wrote the lyrics in their native language. The Moon of Winter is a powerful and moving adaptation of this carol for strings that will enhance your next Christmas concert, adding a sense of reverence and honor.
