Add sparkle to your Advent prayer celebrations with this contemporary arrangement of conditor alme siderum. The sixteenth-note apreggios in the accompaniment create a sense of fervent expectation in contrast to the gentle legato phrasing of the vocal line. The intensity quietly builds evenly throughout until the piano dramatically breaks in verse 3. The accompaniment returns in force for the final phrase, “Praise, honor, might, and glory be from age to age eternally.â€.

The accompaniment is reminiscent of the well-known Bach/Gounod setting as the arpeggio figures accompany the vocal line and choral harmonies. Within the choral texture are some unusual but pleasing harmonic shifts to keep singer and listener engaged. If you know any of Michael's earlier works, you will surely want this one in your library.
