I performed Lauda per la Natività del Signore several times back in the day and it is one of my favorite works of all-time. Now it is not the Pines of Rome, it is not the Fountains of Rome, and it is not even Church Windows by Respighi; but it it better. This work is pure chamber beauty that relies on vocal and instrumental subtleties and perfect harmonizing rather than bombastic brass and orchestral effects.
Turn it up, shut out the world, and enjoy.
