Creative setting of 3 carols: O Come O Come Emanuel intertwined with Ma Navu Ding Dong Merrily on High with bells, glock, chimes Angels We Have Heard on High with charming mixed meter Majestic recap of “Rejoice” section of O Come O Come Emanuel Maestro Harvey Felder, after the premiere with the Tacoma Symphony: “The thing that I really appreciated about your “Christmas Angels and Bells” was the skillful and artistic writing. As you know, holiday music typically offers little or no musical depth, which leads to a less than enthusiastic reaction from the orchestra. Your piece offered a level of musical sophistication worthy of a professional symphony while still creating a festive holiday spirit. The orchestra and I enjoyed having the opportunity to dig into something substantive yet fun on our holiday concert.” See composer website for audio sample.
