Review:
Ms. Moklebust writes of this piece, characterizing the Advent season: "Anticipation of the arrival of a Savior who came to Earth in human form to reclaim us from sin." Percussion is Chime Tree or Wind Chime, Triangle and Finger Cymbal. This mysterious and melancholy music, which includes the use of the Dies Irae, reminds us not only of the events of 2,000 years ago surrounding the birth of Our Lord, but the continued, patient anticipation of yet another Coming.
