Review:
Christmas is a season that evokes a childlike feeling in all of us, filled with wonder and awe. In this setting of the German carol,
Ihr Kinderlein kommet, Kenneth Lowenberg creates exactly that kind of magical feeling for us by capturing the sounds of a German toy shop, full of mechanical trinkets and wind-up clocks. By using chromaticism, mallet effects and optional choir chimes, this enchanting arrangement brings to life a delightful Christmas scene. Measures total 95.
