Review:
Ron Mallory’s joyful arrangement of the beloved Christmas tune provides a superb opportunity to bring the entire congregation together. In addition to a handbell choir, you can incorporate congregational singing and a handchime choir, whose parts can also be covered by a keyboardist or the handbell choir. The handbell choir will get to shine in a lilting 6/8 bridge. 75 measures. Key of Eb Major.
