This TBB a cappella arrangement of the well-known text Veni, Veni
Emmanuel is an example of music used by both Old and New
Testament believers. With text traced back to the Psalteriolum
Cantionum Catholicarum (Cologne, 1710), the original lyrics are
drawn primarily from the Book of Isaiah in the Old Testament.
For Christians, it is used in the Advent season, specifically on the
first two Sundays of Advent to set the tone of expectation for the
coming of the savior. In Judaism, it may also be used as a harbinger
of the savior yet to come, without the restriction of the Advent
season.
