Songs of the Season – Hayley Westenra – “Veni, Veni, Emmanuel”
Being into music and languages, I really enjoy hearing carols in their original languages. I love “O Come, O Come, Emmanuel” but it seems more difficult finding a solo version of the Latin original, but here we go:
Hayley Westenra is from New Zealand (like Meredith Braun, whom I mentioned yesterday). I first heard of Hayley Westenra the one and only time I was in that beautiful country. Interestingly enough, she’s also released music that she’s sung in Japanese, which is impressive. Then again, I am a language geek!
Anyone have any “lesser known” Christmas songs or carols to share?
Orthodox Christian mom with more than a passing interest in technology. And music. And history... And, and... My poor kids, right? They ask me a question and they get a lesson on something or another! In any case, I've always liked to write, so please grab a cup of tea (or other hot beverage) and let's get to know each other through the written word. :)
May God bless and keep you, this day and always.

That is beautiful! I especially like that they have the text in French there, because French is, well… French. It’s just hard to follow otherwise. 🙂 Thank you!
