Review:
Appropriate for any time during the season of Advent, this captivating arrangement of an old Basque carol rocks calmly along. With the melody shared between the treble and bass clefs, it builds in intensity and harmonic interest as it progresses. The various options for the use of handbells, chime instruments and Silver Melody Bells infuse color and variety, sure to capture and hold your listeners’ attention. Begins in G Minor, then modulates briefly to c Minor before ending in D Minor. 72 measures.
