Review:
Lively, energetic, and full of Christmas joy, Ron Mallory has re-imagined this favorite carol with new harmonic and rhythmic vigor. The optional percussion (tambourine and windchimes) enhances Mallory’s brilliant handbell writing. Open or close your Christmas concert with this exciting piece, or incorporate in your Christmas worship service – your holiday season won’t be complete without it! 89 measures. Key of D Major.
