Sondra Tucker enhances the Latin rhythms of a traditional South American Christmas Carol via gentle martellatos and ornamental lines in thirds, reminding us of a bright but quiet trumpet duet in a Mariachi band. A lullaby in a minor key has a joyous shift to major for the refrain. This shift is a characteristic of Spanish and Cuban folksongs (guajira.) Fresh, accessible, and fun to ring.
