Let All Mortal Flesh Keep Silence

This traditional Advent melody has been set as an accessible two octave arrangement that echoes the timeliness of the hymn upon which it is based. The dynamics and melodic shapes of the musical phrases ebb and flow as the music unfolds to express a sense of awe and the presence of the Holy. The less experienced quartet group searching for a quiet, easier piece for the Advent season will find this setting can gently stretch their small ensemble techniques.
