Review:
The playful melody of this favorite holiday song incorporates 2 octaves of optional chimes. The beginning is bright and fanfarish before settling down to bouncy, bass accompaniment with melody overhead. The middle section adds the chimes on the inner melody and they contribute throughout the rest of the work. Measures total 80.
