Chris
tmas hymn With suspended
bells quietly calling, O
Come, O Come, Emmanuel,
the scene is set for the
urgency and excitement
that is to follow -
proclaim the good news
that He Is Born! The
faster tempo, minor
backdrop and tabled
mallet accompaniment
drive the piece forward
with the urgent message
of the Christ Child's
birth. The contrasting
middle section offers a
warmer, more thoughtful
statement that includes
lingering LV passages and
optional handchimes. The
piece closes by reprising
the spirited section and
is capped off with a
celebratory fanfare in
major tonalities.
