The great Advent hymn “Savior of the Nations, Come” has been on my mind a lot this week, no doubt in part because of Bruce Benedict’s excellent rendition. As I planned for next week’s service, I knew the Joyful Noise Orchestra would sound great playing it. I wanted to give the more experienced players a little something to sink their teeth into, so I channeled Bach (Bach on a very bad day, that is) and came up with a short fugal introduction for the hymn. Check out the PDF or MP3.
