Review:
Eight optional handchimes, ranging from G5-G6, organ, and brass, offer additional ensemble for this medley of the carols, 'Joy to the World, There's a Star in the East, and O Come All Ye Faithful". The fanfare begins bold and bright before relaxing into a somewhat free section where the chimes enter on the melody. A full texture returns for the final section and ends big. Brass ensemble consists of 2 trumpets, French Horn, Trombone, and Tuba.
