Oh, Come, All Ye Faithful

I started writing this arrangement of “Oh, Come, All Ye Faithful” when I was in college, while in my mid 20’s, so it is was begun more than 40 years ago! At first it just had the three verses with a key change in between each. There was no introduction, no organ solo, and no repeat of the first verse with the descant.

It was quite a few years later, following getting married and moving across country to the Washington DC area that I added the other portions and only because the local choir director seemed willing to entertain using my arrangement as part of the church’s Christmas music program with the choir.

PDF's of the organ score and the full score of this arrangement are available as attachments to the upload of this from last year on the Rotterdam Laurenskerk Main Organ:

Users of the Concert Hall can freely use these scores for their own performances. I would appreciate it if anyone performs this arrangement to just leave a comment letting me know about the performance, and in particular how it was received by the audience.
