Review:
This quiet, gentle setting incorporates "How Far Is It to Bethlehem", another traditional English carol. The two melodies offer opportunities for ringers to play musically and distinguish between accompaniment and melody notes as the tunes move from one register to another. The piece is appropriate for the Christmas season, and it is especially useful for Christmas Eve and candlelight services. It is 77 measures and is scored in e minor and G Major.
