O Come, O
Come Emmanuel is a hymn
for Advent and Christmas
whose words and music
developed separately over
time. The Latin text was
first documented in 1710
and the tune's origins
date back to the 15th
century. In the 18th
century, John Mason Neal
discovered the hymn and
translated the text into
English. The melody was
first linked with the
hymn in 1851, when Thomas
Helmore paired it with
Neale's translation of
the text. This original
version of O Come, O
Come, Emmanuel was
included in Hymns Ancient
and Modern in 1861, which
was the official hymnal
of the Church of England.
The song's influence
spread over time and it
remains one of the most
popular and enduring
Christmas hymns. In this
arrangement of O Come, O
Come, Emmanuel, the piano
accompaniment is written
in 12/8 meter. The vocal
lines, however, can be
easily taught in 4/4
time. This will allow
developing students to
experience the feeling of
a new meter while being
able to apply skills they
already know. .
