Murray on Saltspring | Rorate Coeli desuper (9) | Rorate Coeli desuper | 10 Dec 06 |
The words of "Rorate coeli desuper" in the Oxford Book of Carols are by the great Scots makar Dunbar, set to "a little-known Scottish melody". The identification of this unnamed tune has bothered me for years. Any ideas? I did think it was maybe a descant on a well-known tune like Corn Riggs, but that doesn't quite work. |
