Engaging style and a joyful spirit characterise this Advent admonition! Lightly jazzy and in minor, this easy-to-sing choral is immediately attractive and a pleasant change from more sombre Advent offerings. Lots of unison singing aids learning and when the early-American hymn tune RESTORATION arrives in the B section, the four-part texture is warm and sonorous. With light percussion and bass this can be an inventive offering for your choir.
