This new interpretation of the Christmas standard begins with a chorale statement of the original hymn and then heads into new territory as various percussion instruments are added to the mix. Changing time signatures, unique rhythmic patterns and various musical styles are explored as the piece builds to a climactic ending that will provide an exciting, memorable finale to your holiday concert. Note: The chorale section after the intro (mm. 13 through 35) should be played very expressively in a rubato style.
