Review:
It Came Upon the Midnight Clear is a gentle, flowing arrangement of the beloved Christmas carol for 3-5 octave handbell choir. It is appropriate for any Christmas program during the holiday season, but it is especially useful for a Christmas Eve service. Dynamics must be played with sensitivity. When careful ringing and damping techniques are joined with beautifully performed changes, the result is a lovely, satisfying musical performance.
