O Come All Ye Faithful and The First Noel
These two easy handbell or handchime arrangements include the tunes ADESTE FIDELES (known as "O Come All Ye Faithful") and THE FIRST NOWELL. "O Come All Ye Faithful" (in C Major) is straightforward and includes swings, thumb damps, and shakes. "The First Nowell" (in G Major) has been simplified so that there are no eighth notes. Both Christmas carols will work well for a level 1 beginning choir.
