Hello Sister DeFord,
I am compiling some songs for an LDS sacrament meeting cantata that I am creating. I really want an arrangement of O Come O Come Emmanuel. Your arrangement could work for this, but besides my ward choir singing it, I’d like to make it available to purchase on my website. Are you open to discussions about including your arrangement in the larger work?

This is such a beautiful and inspired arrangement and so adaptable for small groups of singers. We just performed this with 6 voices accompanied by piano, cello, flute, and string bass. We were so pleased with the result.

Thank you for your inspiring and enabling beautiful works!

I absolutely adore you. I am the ward music coordinator and the stake music coordinator in Memphis TN, and I conduct the choirs for both, and your beautiful arrangements are always my go-to when I’m looking for something special. Your arrangements are beautiful AND singable….2 qualities that are essential for an amateur church choir. Thank you for making such lovely music accessible to the members of the church.

Hi, Sister Deford –

Is there a possibility of an alto version of O Come O Come Emmanuel? May I transpose it?

You are a very inspired woman! I love your music and am grateful for the
use of it for Church programs, especially Christmas and Easter.
Thank you

Merry Christmas!
I am praising God in Korea. While preparing for the Advent praise, I overheard your performance and found out at once that it was a song I had been looking for for years. Thank you so much. I prayed and hoped that God would bless you. “Rejoice!
Emmanuel shall come to thee” Thank you so much.
