Description

Arranged for 3 to 6 octave handbell choir and optional 3 to 5 octaves of handchimes.  Level 3.  A sequence of mysterious opening chords give way to a melancholy setting of this beautiful Appalachian carol.  A middle iteration of the melody accompanied by malleted bass chords and shifting time signatures provides textural and aural interest before a return to the opening feeling once more.  Perfect for a quiet, reflective moment in worship or concert during the holidays!
