The French carol “Il est né, le divin Enfant” celebrates the long-awaited birth of the Savior, foretold by ancient prophets. This piano instrumental arrangement starts out sweetly with the melody being played lightly, then starts adding in rolled open-fifth chords and ornamentation to give it a Celtic flair. The energy picks up as it transitions to an lively 6/8 meter, making you want to get up and dance in joyful celebration!  This arrangement is available in two versions: intermediate piano duet (primo part is a bit more advanced than secondo) and late intermediate piano solo. 6 pages for the piano solo. The duet version is 5 pages each for the secondo and primo parts, or 8 pages for the combined score. The duet PDF contains both layouts so you can play from the one you prefer. Performance time: approximately 3:05.
