Review:
Using an ostinato figure played Martellato or TD, the arranger creates a clever arrangement of "Piae Cantiones" (better known as "Good King Wenceslas") in simple meter with the exception of a middle section in compound meter. Taken through several meter and key changes, Sherman's work is a lively addition to a Christmas concert. Measures total 126.
