Review:
A versatile arrangement of an iconic holiday classic in compatible 2-3 and 3-5 octave scores, Kathleen Wissinger’s setting features carefully assigned eighth-note runs, simple syncopation and at least one “accidental” bell change per ringer. Advanced groups may increase the tempo for more excitement with this ideal choice for worship, festival, school, concert and tree lighting celebrations. 72 measures in length, this arrangement alternates between c minor and d minor.
