Review:
The Christmas favorite GO TELL IT has been arranged by John A. Behnke for 3–5 octave handbells and handchimes. This arrangement uses echoes, martellato, chimes with vibrato, and shakes to convey gladness. The opening musical motive provides the forward motion portraying the text—go! Get your people excited for Christmas with this piece! 81 measures. Key of G Major.
