Mary Cohen's This is the Light is a ‘story carol’ for the Feast of Candlemas (February 2nd). Easy, atmospheric and evocative, written for SATB with organ, in G minor. 

The story of Simeon and Anna (‘waiting, waiting’ in the Temple), is interwoven with the back stories of the Annunciation and the Nativity.                                                                                        

“It’s beautiful…makes the hairs stand up on the back of my neck.”
