Notte Di Natale / Ninna Nanna A Gesù

Released under the La Voce Del Padrone label, this 7-inch record captures the liturgical and traditional vocal arrangements performed by the Cappella Musicale della Basilica di San Francesco d'Assisi. These recordings were produced to preserve the historic choral traditions of the Basilica, reflecting the solemn and reflective atmosphere associated with Christmas celebrations in Assisi. The label, a prominent Italian branch of His Master's Voice, focused on high-fidelity captures of classical and sacred music during the mid-20th century.

The aesthetic of the release aligns with the mid-century catalog design of La Voce Del Padrone, favoring a minimalist, reverent presentation that highlights the gravity of the performances. As a recording of liturgical music, the work was designed to bring the acoustic majesty of the Basilica into private homes. It was received as a standard contribution to the Italian seasonal catalog, serving both as a devotional aid and as a testament to the choir's long-standing musical heritage.
