“They had seen a star in the east and had come to worship Him.” Lush harmonies and flowing lines abound in anthem that heralds the arrival of Baby Jesus. Pepper Choplin has coupled beautiful melodies with lyrics that reference scripture and create imagery of the appearance of the star in the East. An optional instrumental ensemble makes this selection even more versatile. (From the cantata “I Hear the Prophet Callin’” SATB — 65/2005L; SAB — 65/2006L.)
