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.
