Review:
Ron Mallory presents an outstanding arrangement of the popular "While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks" tune. Beginning softly to remind us of that starry night long ago, the piece shifts to a more joyous and energetic middle section that expresses the joy of the shepherds as they greet the Christ-child, while the soft ending represents their reflection on all that they had experienced. 77 measures. Keys of C Major and D Major.
