Patricia Hurlbutt renders an exceptional arrangement of the French folk tune PICARDY. The minor tonality of this tune appropriately expresses the sense of awe and majesty of the text, and the use of handchimes and other simple techniques accentuate both text and tune. This piece will be a delight for your ringers to perform and for your congregation to hear during the Christmas season! 78 measures. Key of d minor.
