In this unique work for SATB or SAB choirs, the many names of Christ foretold in the Old Testament are used to proclaim the familiar story of Christmas: Emmanuel, God With Us brings to life Mary's visit from the angel; Son of David depicts the journey to Bethlehem; and King of Kings involves the Wise Men and the congregation in worship.Lovely original melodies stand alongside familiar carols to create a musical experience suitable for churches of all traditions. A simple, scriptural narration joins the seven choral pieces, and an optional joyous instrumental overture sets the stage with a medley of Christmas favorites. The orchestration of this work is within the range of many churches, with the option of using digital keyboard along with a small group of woodwinds, brass, and percussion. Performance time is 30 minutes. Contents include: This is the King; Desire of Every Nation; Emmanuel, God With Us; Song of David; Bread of Heaven; Run to Bethlehem; King of Kings; Jesus, Name Above All Names.
