Review:
In the tradition of Joel Raney's top-selling Christmas anthems "Christmas Is Coming" and "Somebody Build a Manger," this SATB original is an up-tempo seasonal celebration. The optional handbell and instrumental parts add lots of sparkle to this jazzy setting. Strains of the familiar
"We Three Kings" are introduced as the piece reaches a rousing, pull-out-all-the-stops conclusion. While the orchestral parts are optional, be aware that the handbell parts are included in the orchestral score with rights to reproduce. Measures total 107.
