TU SCENDI DALLE STELLE - A Ferrari.
"Tu scendi dalle stelle" (You Descend from the Stars) is the best known Christmas carol originating in Italy. Though found in numerous arrangements and commonly sung, it is traditionally associated with the zampogna or large-format Italian bagpipe.
It is brilliantly played by The New Art Symphonic Orchestra under the direction of Maestro Andrea Ferrari.
The melody and original lyrics for the hymn were written by St Alfonso Maria de' Liguori, a prominent Neapolitan priest who founded the Redemptorist missionary order, seventh largest in the Catholic world.
In 1744, while staying at Convent of the Consolation , one of his order's houses in the small city of Deliceto in the province of Foggia in southeastern Italy, he put together the Christmas song that begins "You come down from the stars" entitled "Little song to Child Jesus".
Music used with Maestro Ferrari's permission.
