Review:
This book is intended to be compatible with the "Play a Song of Christmas" series for Band or Orchestra or to be played with bells alone. Each selection is very short in hymn-like fashion. Many of the selections should be classified as 2 1/2 octaves as they often omit above D6. Good for warm-ups with young ringers or to take for "fillers" on Christmas bell outings.
