Review:
This Polish carol has been given a delicate and fresh new treatment with the melody alternating between handbells and handchimes. Handchimes are listed as ‘optional’ but it is best performed with chimes. Unexpected yet interesting harmonies, descending eighth note melodic patterns, subtle modulations to new keys, and nicely used LV passages will engage the listener from the first chord to the ending. This is an opportunity for groups to expand and perfect their best expressive ringing. 60 measures. Keys of G Major, A Major, and D Major.
