The Shepherds' Farewell is taken from Berlioz's oratorio L'enfance du Christ depicting the flight of the holy family from King Herod's massacre of new-born children. Apparently, Berlioz's music was not generally appreciated by Parisian audiences, finding it too discordant and harmonically advanced for their taste but this Oratorio, and in particular this movement, was appreciated for its simplicity in form and beautiful melody, and is now sung by choirs across the world at Christmas.

There are alternative Bb parts to cover the Eb and Alto Clarinets, and the 2nd Bass and Contra parts are optional.
