Puer natus in Bethlehem: Prot tune, Latin words?
  • I'm looking for a 4 part hymn setting of the good old Babst tune "Puer natus in Bethlehem" with the Latin Puer words underlaid. This seems like a no-brainer, and I did a site search to see what was here, but didn't find it here (or anywhere else). I've found Chris' setting (not quite what I need) and the chant. It's surely a wheel that somebody else has invented. Any ideas?

    In the original 1928 Oxford Book of Carols, it's no. 85 (harm. by Martin Shaw; including an alt. harm. by J.S. Bach) with English text. Original tune: EIN KIND GEBORN ZU BETHLEHEM
