From the opening rhythmic chant of “When will he come ” this exciting advent anthem creates a sprit of anticipation as it crescendos to a festive and celebratory ending. With its melodic basis in the French folk carol “Bring a Torch Jeannette Isabella” (Un Flambeau Jeanette Isabelle) the composer's new text enables a variety of programming options for the season of life. Powerful orchestration supports the energy of this finepiece.
