About "Der Stern von Bethlehem, Op. 164 : Rheinberger: Der Stern von Bethlehem, Op. 164: II. Die Hirten" by Rita Streich
Rheinberger's 'Die Hirten' paints shepherds on a starlit plain. Streich's voice floats above hushed strings, a solitary flame against the night. The music holds both wonder and trembling—a lullaby for those awaiting a miracle, suspended between earth and heaven.
