    Greetings. I'm new to the forum. I have a sheet music question that I hope someone can answer. I am looking for an old Advent piece. Is anyone familiar with "Improvisation on 'Veni Emmanuel'" setting by Camil van Hulse? There is a piece with this title in "Seven Preludes on Advent Hymns" (Concordia), but that isn't the one I'm looking for. It's a larger work. Does anyone have it or know anything about it?

    Sorry, I've never heard of him or it. Good luck in your search; perhaps some other forum reader will know of the piece.

    If the improvisation from van Hulse's Seven Preludes on Advent Hymns (Concordia, 1952) is not what you are looking for, you may want to contact World Library Publications. I recall that in the 1960's WLP published a number of van Hulse compositions for organ (a Mass too, IIRC). WLP also sold imports from Annie Bank publications in Holland.

    Dear ronkrisman, Thanks for the info. This video IS the one I am looking for. Good job in finding this. I will check WLP. Hopefully, they, or someone else will know.

    Update - WLP no longer has any works by Camil van Hulse listed.
    The search goes on.
