The traditional Polish carol, Infant Holy, Infant Lowly is initially presented in a chorale style; as the arrangement progresses, it is developed using more contemporary harmonies, textures and arranging techniques. The first statement of the tune is followed by an interlude that introduces a new melodic element which is interjected after short phrases of the traditional melody throughout the remainder of the piece. Other elements of the arrangement include cascading accompaniment lines and a counter melody.
