Description
With sung verses of Psalm 80 ("O Shepherd of Israel, hearken") punctuated by the refrain
of the Advent chant Veni Emmanuel, this processional captures the essence of
the Advent season. A persistent windchime background joins with these beautiful
melodies and both tuned and non-tuned bells to create a processional that allows for maximum
spatial creativity (singers and bell ringers in various locations). A final, full verse
of O Come, O Come, Emmanuel ends the piece and allows congregational participation
in what is sure to be an effective, beautiful way to open an Advent liturgy.
