This jazz composition is based on the hauntingly beautiful 15th century medieval tune that is commonly used for the Advent carol O Come, O Come, Emmanuel. I have reharmonized it with the accompaniment in a Key Signature a fifth above that of the melody. The accompaniment, part 2, has a broken two chord ostinato throughout written as a walking bass line. I have altered the melody, part 1, and moved much of it to the off beats. As in period early music, I allow occassional dissonances in order to keep the ostinato. This piece makes a wonderfully useful and unique addition to the season's repertoire. (I have also published a version on this site with text so it can be sung by a soloist or unison choir with piano accompaniment.) (Also as a piano solo.)range - part 1 melody - 10th, 3rd space C to high E; part 2 walking bass line, octave and a half, bass clef low A to D above middle C2 pages score, 1 page @ part, 2:05 minutes
