This traditional Caribbean song has been arranged with the joyful spirit inherent in the song. It starts with mallet rolls and soon moves into the familiar syncopated refrain where a clean ring touch technique is needed to clarify the rhythm. The hymn tune LASST UNS ERFREUEN appears in chimes (optional 2-3 octaves) against a contrasting rhythmic malleted bass, then continues with a return of the original theme.
