This setting of Charles Gounod and J.S. Bach's original composition showcases a C instrument (preferably oboe) that is NOT optional. Handbells provide accompaniment throughout that is entirely scored in sixteenth-note, arpeggiated chords in quarter-note = 56 tempo. 40 measures scored in G Major, it is a lovely setting for any occasion.
