Review:
Matthew Prins offers a richly harmonized medley of "Twas in the Moon of Wintertime, God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen, The Coventry Carol," and "The First Nowell." This is a striking level 4+ work using juxtaposing tunes and employing techniques as an integral part of the orchestration of the piece, making it an ideal selection for an advanced handbell choir or for a community group's Christmas program. Arranged in c minor, e minor, and C Major, and Ab Major, measures total 106.
