Review:
Stemming from the 1944 motion picture release, Meet Me in St. Louis, this Christmas classic was first introduced by Judy Garland and has been a blockbuster ever since. Brimming with charm, this setting features a subtle bolero style rhythm for 3-6 octave handbells, along with 3-5 octave handchimes, and optional synth and percussion. 96 measures. Keys of D Major, F Major, and G Major.
