Review:
Fun and accessible, this arrangement of the holiday tune is sure to become a seasonal standard with your group. A slower, pensive version of the melody halfway through provides a nice contrast to the usual upbeat tempo. Be sure to add the optional sleigh bells for optimum effect. Scored in F Major and D Major, this delightful Christmas arrangement is 66 measures.
