Review:
A delicate malleted figure opens this dance-like arrangement of “Good Christian Friends, Rejoice.” A gentler middle verse on handchimes gives way to a final triumphant verse with full chords. Surprising harmonies abound, keeping listener and ringer alike engaged. It is a brilliant choice for holiday worship or concert use. 93 measures. Keys of D Major and F Major.
