Arranged for 3-5 octave handbell choir and optional 3-5 octaves of handchimes. Level 3. Setting by Johannes Brahms. Gentle and endearing, this very accessible arrangement of a traditional German Christmas carol is simple enough for most choirs to attempt, but has enough challenge and potential for musicality to keep advanced choirs happy, as well. Handchimes feature prominently in the middle verse, making for some careful coordination for ringers between bell and chime.
SKU: BP.HB579
Arranged for 3 to 6 octave handbell choir. Level 3+. An opening peal figure gives way to the theme of the traditional carol, all in 10/8 time. A more standard verse in 4/4 gives way once more to 10/8 as the piece comes in for a raucous conclusion. Unexpected and compelling harmonies abound throughout, giving this old carol a new feeling. A great choice for advanced ensembles looking for a chance to work on mixed meter.
