Review:
"Ring Out Christmas Joy" includes seven carols for bells and voices or solo instrument. This unique and fresh approach to accompaniments offers different options for performance, including playing pieces as a hymn introduction with handbells only, using them as accompaniment for a choir or the congregation, or accompanying a solo instrument. However, a separate instrument part or choir is required for this collection, since the handbells do not play the melody line.
