Composed by Pepper Choplin. Choral, cantatas. Christmas, Sacred. SATB with performance CD. Lorenz Publishing Company #65/2042L. Published by Lorenz Publishing Company (LO.65-2042L).ISBN 9781429129084.
Through imaginative poetic metaphors in the narrative and engaging yet wonderfully accessible music, Choplin leads us on a unique journey to reveal the Christmas story. The familiar components are all there--the visitations of the angels, the startled excitement of the shepherds, the shimmering guiding star, the worshipful reverence of the three kings. Pepper was also inspired to include the poignant chronicle of Simeon, whose greatest desire was to live long enough to personally witness the coming of the promised One, thus fulfilling the prophecy of long ago. "Heaven's Child" is a transforming presentation, taking us deeply into the mystery and awe of Christmas and into the eternal significance of that perfect union of heaven and earth--the divine and the human.

This Pepper Choplin cantata is beautifully narrated with a poetic and fresh approach to the timeless story. The music is accessible and appealing with hints of familiar carols throughout. The length is approx. 40 minutes, which leaves room for additions and adaptations.
