Review:
Christmastide is a medley of six familiar Christmas carols: "Joy to the World," "He Is Born," "Away in a Manger," "God Rest You Merry, Gentlemen," "Sing We Now of Christmas," and "O Come, All Ye Faithful." The arranger uses various techniques and textures to contrast the carols and add interest. This arrangement was written for a Twelfth Night Christmas Handbell Festival. Available in two editions, one for 2-3 octave choirs and one for 4-5 octave choirs.
