Review:
Based on a Mannheim Steamroller arrangement, this Christmas title should have ringers "rocking and rolling" with its mallet uses and fast rock tempo. It may be best to start slowly and work up to the faster tempo, especially with the offbeat eighth notes in the lower treble clef. Nearly constant eighth notes in the bass, many of them being malleted, drive the piece as well. This rendition, which is arranged primarily in G Major, is 120 measures.
