Review:
Advent is a time of awaiting magical promises. This simple and haunting rendition of "Veni Emmanuel" (O Come, O Come, Emmanuel; 15th century, France) perfectly embodies that special feeling of wonder as we await the coming of the Christ Child. 5 compatible versions provide various performance options. Breathe in slowly and enjoy this truly lovely piece.
