John Burge: O Come, O Come Emmanuel SATB & organ

Millennial Suite: Hymns Through the Ages
1. O Come, O Come Emmanuel

The Millennial Suite's six movements make imaginative use of popular hymns that are presented in chronological order. In this movement, the modal language of the plainchant melody gives the music a medieval character. The melody's beautiful lenear design is also highly hinted in a number of contrapuntal treatments. For mixed choir (SATB) and organ.
