Review:
"Little Drummer Boy" for 3 Octaves of handbells with mallets is a traditional Christmas carol. It was popularized for modern voice choir by Katherine K. Davis, Henri Onorati and Harry Simone. This arrangement is mostly repeated ringing and mallets and does feature 16th notes in the high treble. All stations are busy, and this piece will have the congregation sitting on the edge of their seats. Scored in G Major, this setting is 55 measures.
