Gesù Bambino
Music: Pietro A. Yon (1886-1943)Words: Fredrick H. Martens (1874-1932)
Original source: J. Fisher & Bros. 4659-7, copyright 1919.This music is in the public domain in most countries, including the United States and Canada.
* In bars 3–6 and where passage is repeated, the melody in the accompaniment may be played on chimes. The introduction may be treated in like manner. P.A.Y.
The Infant Jesus (Jesu Redemptor)Baritone or Alto solo and chorus of mixed voices
Edition notes: The original was written out with no repeats, requiring 50 measures rather than the current 34. The only difference between the music of the two verses is the breath mark in m. 11, which appeared only on the second verse in the original. The tutti which appears in the bass voice (mm. 6, 24, 26, 29, 33) was placed on all vocal staves in the original. Also, the Italian text has not been included. All other editorial marks are indicated by square brackets. Edited by Andrew Hawryluk.

6 Gesù Bambino
* The presence of two simultaneous pitches alongside the direction that the soloist should sing leaves some ambiguity about the composer’s intentions. The most likely interpretations are: a) The soloist selects either the upper or the lower line, or b) The soloist sings the upper line and the basses sing the lower line.There are other possiblities, but the G is too high for the basses (they may already be unhappy about the E in measure 27) and the tenors’ involvement was probably not intended because they have rests in their staff.
Of course, the director may choose to perform this passage in whatever way best suits the voices at hand. –Ed.
