Review:
Looking for a BIG selection for Christmas worship services? This setting of the traditional French carol may well fit the bill. 3-5 octaves of handbells and organ may be combined with trumpets and timpani and congregational singing with special choir parts for verses 3 and 4 (SA and soprano descant respectively, printed in the back of the director's score part with permission to photocopy). A 16-measure fanfare with snippets of the melody leads into the first sung verse. Scored in F Major, this piece is 117 measures.
