Starting with a musical quote from the beloved French carol NOEL NOUVELET and reimagining it as an Advent statement, this SAB octavo is a must-do for the season of light. The anthem gives way to a light jazz feel in minor and declares the important Isaiah prophecy so associated with Advent lectionary readings. The ranges are friendly to ensembles of any size.
