The music which follows may accompany choir on the inner stanzas of the hymn or can accompany congregational singing for the entirety. The piece ends with a remarkable superimposition of the Doxology Old 100th.

Hymn Duets Volume 1

Flexible Instrumentation Ensemble Collection

This Concertino by Baroque composer Johann Melchior Molter may have been performed as either a concert piece or as music for the court. Its three movements alternate between the styles of the trio sonata and the concerto grosso. The use of Chalumeaux (forerunners of the clarinet) along with the Horns is extrordinary.

Concertino in F

Flexible Instrumentation Sextet

German Baroque composer Johann David Heinichen designated this beautifully serene pastorale "Per La Notte di Natale." The gentle siciliano rhythm paints a peaceful musical picture in this arrangement for wind quintet.

Pastorale for Christmas Night

J.M. Molter was a court musician and Kapellmeister in Germany during the
  18th century. The Concertinos were written for performances at the court. The
  combination of 2 treble instruments, 2 horns, and continuo was undoubtably
  popular with composer and benefactor as he composed eight pieces for similar
  forces. The Concertino in C was composed for two Chalumeaux. This edition
  offers parts for Bb Clarinet and Basset Horn (or 2 Clarinets in Bb.)
    
    Molter's compositional style is a mixture of German Rococo and Stile
  Galant. His use of horns in chamber music is compelling and forward-looking.
  The Concertino's texture alternates between trio sonata and concerto grosso.
  In this edition, figured bass is provided as well as a realized cembalo part.
