Review:
Arranged for 3 to 6 octave handbell choir and optional 3 to 6 octaves of handchimes. Jason Krug's arrangement of this little-known Christmas tune is sure to delight ringers and audiences. The tune is introduced in an ethereal opening with chimes and malleted suspended bells before undergoing a number of variations from playful to regal and everything in between. "Angels and Shepherds" is an excellent choice for the church or community group looking for something different for the Christmas season. 93 measures. Keys of Eb Major and F Major.
