Jessye Norman - Gesu Bambino

This is my mother's favorite Christmas music. I first learned to play it as a teenager, in order to accompany her; later, I sang it myself at candlelight Christmas Eve services.

Here's Jessye's tender, evocative version of the Pietro Yon piece. Enjoy your Christmas Eve!
