Piano Sessions The : Christmas (MARTIN MATTHEW)

Par MARTIN MATTHEW. Commissioned for the Choir of St Paul s Cathedral, this superb festive choral work brings together the traditional French melody of Veni, veni Emmanuel with the Advent Antiphon O Oriens. The relatively accessible choral lines are underpinned by a wonderfully majestic organ accompaniment, which exhibits Matthew Martin s genius for creating a new sound-world from the perfect balance of tradition and innovation. O Oriens is suitable for Advent services and concerts and would be an ideal choice for choirs performing in vast acoustics./ Recueil / Piano, Chant et Guitare
