Review:
This exciting piece for bells and optional percussion overflows with the same joy that the shepherds must have felt on the night they journeyed to see the newborn King! With a touch of island flavor, it brilliantly captures the awe of the shepherds as they quietly approach the Christ Child and their excitement as they spread the good news of His birth to others. Your ringers are sure to enjoy this festive, storytelling option for Christmas! Percussion part included. 91 measures.
