Review:
The writer of the English carol, “I Saw Three Ships,” paints a vivid picture of Christmas morning; gleaming vessels in full sail, colorful flags snapping in the crisp air, bells ringing out from churches, great and small. It was this image that inspired arranger Tammy Waldrop to use jaunty rhythms, pealing bell lines and a touch of Celtic style to propel her setting of this seasonal favorite.
