| Comments: Traditional. We Three Kings; O Come, O Come Emmanuel. |
| Description: This exciting and contemporary arrangement blends two traditional carols, We Three Kings and O Come, O Come Emmanuel. Opening in slow and mysterious 6/8, the tempo shifts to an energetic rhythmic 3/4 with moments of syncopation, melodic interplay, and other musical surprises. Every section of the orchestra gets to play melodic material, as well as a range of dynamics and articulations for dramatic effect. |
