Review:
This fun, light arrangement of the well-known Christmas tune will bring a smile to your audience’s faces. While the harmonies are straightforward, the frequent interwoven staccato sections add a lighthearted feel to the piece. Bell changes are kept to a minimum, even including a key change halfway through the piece. It is perfect for worship or concert use during the Christmas season. 48 measures. Keys of Bb Major and C Major.
