String Orchestra - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.918910 By Jubal's Lyre Music. By Anonymous. Arranged by Martin Dicke. Advent,Christian,Christmas,Holiday,Sacred. 28 pages. Jubal's Lyre Music Publishers #6623621. Published by Jubal's Lyre Music Publishers (A0.918910). Your String Ensemble will enjoy playing this inventive and stirring setting of the great Advent/Christmas hymn O Come, O Come Emmanuel (VENI EMMANUEL). Composed in a Neo-Renaissance style, it sets all seven verses modulating into four keys while passing the melody from voice to voice before concluding with several sudden and surprising key changes that lead to a powerful cadence on the altered note of the Picardy third. It may be performed alone or with a choir. An optional keyboard part is provided so that directors can support small or young ensembles. The choral editions are published in either English or Latin. They are the first of Three Motets on Latin Christmas Hymns. The other motets in this series are settings of Of the Father’s Love Begotten (CORDE NATUS EX PARENTIS) and O Come, All Ye Faithful (ADESTE FIDELIS), which are also available in English or Latin.
