Arranged for 3 to 5 octave handbell choir, optional 2 octaves of handchimes, optional piano and optional flute or English horn. Level 2. THE FIRST NOEL. This sweet, heartwarming work makes a perfect addition to any Advent or Christmas service, especially on Christmas Eve. An original tune gives way to a grandiose statement of The First Noel before returning to the opening theme once again.

An optional piano part is also available to further augment the sonorities.
