Commissioned for the Choir of St Paul’s Cathedral this superb festive choral work brings together the traditional French melody of Veni veni Emmanuel with the Advent Antiphon O Oriens. The relatively accessible choral lines are underpinned by a wonderfully majestic organ accompaniment which exhibits Matthew Martin’s genius for creating a new sound-world from the perfect balance of tradition and innovation. O Oriens is suitable for Advent services and concerts and would be an ideal choice for choirs performing in vast acoustics.
