O Heiland, Reiss die Himmel auf (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - De Haan, Jacob

O Heiland, reiss die Himmel auf (O Saviour, Rend the Heavens Wide) was written by the German poet Friedrich von Spee (1591-1635) during the Thirty Years' War. The profound text echoes the misery of that time, but at the same time reflects hope of comfort and redemption. This well-known Advent song is sung in the Catholic as well as the Protestant Church. Jacob de Haan has used the beautiful melody for this arrangement for concert band.Duration: 2:15
