Some unusual harmonic twists and turns set this arrangement of Mendelssohn's Christmas favorite apart from other handbell settings. The Level 2+ rating makes it accessible to choirs of differing abilities, from those wanting to “step up” their abilities to those more advanced groups looking for interesting music to work up quickly. It is sure to be a winning and unique choice for both. 29 measures (excluding repeat) in the key of F Major.
