Review:
"Joseph Dearest, Joseph Mine" is a bright, energetic setting of the 15th century German carol for 3-5 octave handbell choir, organ and optional handchimes. It is appropriate for any occasion during the Christmas season. When performing in a location where the organ is unavailable, a piano or electric keyboard may be sustituted. The piece is playable without the keyboard part, beginning at measure 3.
