Composed by Stephen DeCesare. Arranged by Stephen DeCesare. This edition: pdf. Advent, Broadway, Christian, Christmas, Musical/Show, Sacred. 79 pages. Exultet Music #2217159. Published by Exultet Music (A0.611588).A powerful and reflective Advent choral collection rooted in Scripture, tradition, and the timeless cry of the Church: “Come, Lord Jesus.”
This multi-movement work weaves together narration, chant-inspired writing, and lyrical choral textures to create a deeply prayerful and musically engaging experience. Featuring settings such as Maranatha / O Antiphons, Magnificat, and Forever Will I Sing, the collection moves seamlessly between meditative intimacy and full choral expression.
Scored for SATB choir with optional soloists, flute, and piano, the work offers flexibility for parish choirs, concert settings, and seasonal liturgies. The inclusion of narration and cue-based transitions allows directors to shape the piece as a continuous Advent meditation or as individual selections for worship.
With accessible yet expressive vocal writing, rich harmonic language, and clear liturgical grounding, Maranatha is ideal for Advent concerts, Lessons & Carols, or reflective seasonal programming.
Perfect for:
• Advent concerts and services
• Lessons & Carols
• Parish choirs and community ensembles
• Sacred concert programming
Instrumentation: SATB Choir, Flute (optional), Piano
Style: Lyrical, meditative, chant-inspired, contemporary sacred
Difficulty: Moderate (accessible for most parish and community choirs).
