Description

Come Thou My Light
Peter Pindar Stearns

• based on a text by the 19th century writer Hugh Kerr

• opening theme is used throughout and creates a graceful spirit

• choirs will need to watch the angularity of the voice parts to keep a good legato

• all voices are given equal treatment in a comfortable range for accomplished choirs

• has the hallmark of lovely counterpoint and elegant melody typical of Stearns

Although not specifically for Advent, this text will be useful as a general anthem during this season and at other times during the year. The organ part is on two staves and is active throughout the setting. There are three verses for the choir with the last one primarily in unison. The work opens with a treble solo that introduces the theme.
