The Birth of Emmanuel

Editorial Reviews
Max Fillmore E., December 2000
"Blend of instruments creats quite unique sound. Melodies are breathtaking".

Leigh Green, January 2001
It is full of originality and heart. There are nuances that touch different emotions each time I listen to it.

Album Description
The inspiration for this haunting and ambient instrumental music comes from the Gospel of Matthew. It emphasizes the circumstances and history surround the birth of Jesus Christ. Less popular than other traditional Biblical versions of Christmas story, St. Matthew's point of view strikes with its simple, yet powerful truth. You might find out that this is the most unusual Christian instrumental and Christmas music you ever heard.

5 out of 5 stars Unusual, Original, Talented composition with Scriptural Narration.......2007-05-03

Want something new and different for Christmas but with the scriptural quotations? Eckemoff's music is more complex and pleasing than a lot of the new music out there.

Eckemoff is classically trained in a Russian conservatory and lives in North Carolina. She works as an organist and choir director in a church and does piano plus MIDI studio work. Her deep faith and musical talent combine wonderfully here.

4 out of 5 stars Surprising, refreshing, moving........2005-06-22

Do not hope to find a single familiar christmas melody here. All music is original, and I mean REALLY original. (If you want just traditional Christmas listening, get Yelena's piano "When Christmas is Near" CD). But this one is truly refresing and inspirational. The only thing that prevented me to give it five stars was that I do not appreciate readings of the Bible in between the musical tracks. I'd much prefer to have the music without interraption. Anyway, this is THE album to listen at Christmas eve. Strongly reccomended! Mike.
