Michael Praetorius (1571-1621), was the most famous as well as the most prolific German composer of his time. "Lo, How a Rose E'er Blooming is the familiar English title for this German Christmas carol, "Es ist ein Ros entsprungen. Praetorius harmonized the most common tune for the carol in 1609. It speaks of a rose sprouting from the Tree of Jesse, the father of David. This image was particularly popular in art from medieval times.
This arrangement features three complete verse settings, each presenting a new variation. It allows an opportunity for musical expression with rubato and dynamic contrast. The setting
also features contrast in colors and instrumental choirs with both tutti and transparent scoring.
