O Thou Who Camest From Above
$35.00
From its origins in the 1762 edition of "Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures," the hymn "O Thou Who Camest From Above" has held a notable place in christian liturgical heritage. Its 1780 adaptation by Wesley for the "Collections of Hymns for the Use of The People Called Methodists" underscored its enduring message inspired by Leviticus 6:13.
Fast-tracking to 2020, Bravo Brass engaged Ehren Valmé to adapt this time-honored hymn for brass ensemble. Valmé’s rendition, devised for a brass ensemble consisting of 4 trumpets, 2 horns, 3 trombones, and a tuba, encapsulates the hymn's depth within a contemporary 3.5-minute format, harmoniously fusing age-old reverence with modern tonality.
