Review:
The clip-clop of a donkey's hooves (portrayed by mallets, thumb damps, or plucks), the cooing of a dove (recreated with the LV technique and softer dynamic levels), and the mooing of a cow (depicted with the use of echoes) all make a musical appearance in this sweet Christmas hymn arrangement. There is even a swishing of the cow's tail (swing)! This piece is 68 measures and is scored in Bb Major.
