People Look East by The Peace of Wild Things published on 2012-08-18T22:46:14Z My arrangement of "People Look East," (also known as the Besançon Carol) for two flutes and harp. Although not well-known, this beautiful Advent carol speaks of the anticipation of awaiting a special guest who is soon to arrive: People, look east. The time is near Of the crowning of the year. Make your house fair as you are able, Trim the hearth and set the table. People, look east and sing today: Love, the guest, is on the way. Appropriate all through Advent and into the Christmas season. This arrangement features chords in the harp that call to mind the celebratory ringing of church bells. Genre Classical
