Review:
4-in-hand ostinato with the plantive melody. There is an option to use 1 octave of chimes in one phrase. An optional A7 on the last note would make this a 5 octave piece. It is recorded by the BELLTREE DUO on the Christmas 'Round the Tree (A301) CD. The melody begins in the higher registers, then drops 2 octaves later on, staying in the key of a minor throughout. The piece is two pages (all-inclusive) and totals 55 measures.
