Review:
This sparkling arrangement of a traditional Christmas carol is perfectly suited for both Advent and Christmastide, and it makes a bright and cheerful addition to concert and festival repertoire as well. With minimal bell changes, the piece is easy to learn for an intermediate-level choir. The martellato lifts and trills add bounce and drive to this infectious tune.
