Review:
A single, gentle syncopating line is a unifying thread in this sweet setting of the traditional German carol. Mallets on suspended bells and undulating accompaniment characterize the first section; and a key change leads to a strong chordal section, which returns to the opening feel towards the end A few strains of "Adeste Fideles" are added for a special effect. This piece is 72 measures and is arranged in Eb Major and F Major.
