"Macht hoch die Tür" - "Gottes Sohn ist kommen"

This are two advent hymn settings by Karl Hoyer, published in his extensive collection of choral preludes op 57. The first one, "Macht hoch die Tür" is a powerfull setting using the strong and bold tutti of the organ. The second setting features a pastoral theme played on the flutes interrupted by a choral setting by mild reads, the Fagott and Oboe from the second swell division.
