Review:
This setting of the traditional Christmas tune from the talented pen of Julie Turner shows just why she is a rising star in the handbell world. When the optional handchimes are added, this stunner will surely "bring the house down" at this year's Christmas concert! The treble clef carries the melody throughout (mostly in the upper bells), with the bass clef being given different treatments. Scored in C Major, this piece is 122 measures.
