Advent – the four weeks leading up to Christmas - is a time of waiting with solemnity and joyous expectation, and typically allows us to prepare for the real meaning of Christmas. Globally, churches and homes symbolically light candles on Advent wreathes weekly until Christmas.

To honour this auspicious time, some beautiful hymns, meditative music and joyous and life-affirming rousing pieces have been created to celebrate Advent – many created for organ and trumpet.
