Opening with the traditional chant of ""O Come O Come Emmanuel"" this anthem quickly moves to a rhythmic, driving arrangement of the tune ""Veni Emmanuel."" The vibrancy of the rhythm patterns in the accompaniment and syncopations in melody will have choir members moving to the beat. A fresh new approach to the familiar, this anthem works equally well with youth and adult choirs. Ideal for Advent I-IVas part of an Advent lesson and carol service.
