Review:
From the pen of the famous 20th century French organist, this 97-measure traditional carol arrangement translates beautifully for handbells. It employs straightforward ringing technique, but the highly chromatic tonal shifts makes learning a challenge. The final product is a lovely Christmas lullaby, in softly rocking 6/8 meter. This piece is scored in G Major.
