Review:
Arranged for 3 to 5 octave handbell choir, optional 2 octaves of handchimes and optional flute or violin. Karen Lakey Buckwalter expertly weaves together a trio of Advent carols in this lyrical medley appropriate for church or concert use. Flowing lines and delicate accompaniment underscore the tunes "Blessed Be That Maid Marie," "The Cherry Tree Carol," and "Lo, How a Rose E'er Blooming", and the optional flute or violin add aural interest throughout. This is a beautiful addition to the handbell literature. The violin or flute part are included with the handbell score. 80 measures. Keys of e minor and G Major.
