Product Description

O Come, O Come Emmanuel is an ancient Latin hymn associated with the Vespers services leading up to Christmas. This SATB divisi arrangement by Mark R Lewis imitates the tradition of Latin plainsong but is fully modern in conception. While this arrangement is not too extreme in terms of notes and rhythms, it will stretch the limits of many singers' vocal ranges and incorporates some complex harmonies. The arrangement incorporates a pedal note drone that can be played on any instrument. There is an optional hand drum part. While this arrangement does work with only the drone accompaniment, Mark has also published string orchestra and woodwind ensemble settings that work wonderfully as accompaniment to the vocal setting. The audio sample for this item is from the vocal trio arrangement of this piece that Mark has published. Vocal Range: Key of d minor Soprano - 1 1/2 octaves (C4 - A5 {opt. Bb5}) Alto - 1 + octaves (A3 - Bb4) Tenor - 1 + octaves (C3 - D4) Bass - 1 1/2 octaves ({opt. D2} F2 - C4)
