Piano by Joel: the Fresh Piano Blog and Podcast: O Come Emmanuel (Orchestral Mix)

Piano by Joel: the Fresh Piano Blog and Podcast

Giving away a whole lot of free piano music since 2005! I specialize in expressive piano interpretations and orchestral arrangements of songs and hymns, suitable for contemplation, meditation, relaxation, or just to keep you company as you go about your business. There's quite a few free mp3 downloads by now, so take your time and enjoy the music. I hope it meets your needs wherever you are in your spiritual walk.

Looking for music downloads? Just find the post containing the song you want, right-click the "Click Here to Listen" link, and choose "save as."

O Come Emmanuel (Orchestral Mix)

First of all, let me wish a Merry Christmas and a warm season's greetings to everyone. Now, on to my Christmas gift for you.

This arrangement of O Come Emmanuel is more sophisticated than my usual offerings, with both symphonic and atmospheric qualities influenced by some of the great film score composers. This rendition features ancient instruments such as the filimbi, duduk, oud, cornu, kantele, ram's horn (suggestive of the shofar), and percussion, as well as a modern string section, choir and solo cello. There's a lot of variety, and things keep changing musically as the piece moves forward. For you gearheads, I mixed my music with Ableton Live 6 (it's not just for hip-hop and electronica anymore!) coupled with GigaStudio.

Download and Enjoy! Merry Christmas.

Location: IL

Joel Rosenberger is a pianist, composer, and arranger specializing in fresh, instrumental arrangements of Christian hymns. Joel believes in the abundance of music and creativity, and offers quite a bit of music on his Fresh Piano podcast, which has been "airing" since 2005. He has released two CDs, and has published several sheets. His piano recordings have been heard on the BBN network, and his arrangements have been performed by other music groups, including a performance on the Millenium Stage at Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C.
