Description

The sweet Christmas lyrics appear in 61 hymnals – and has been popular since the poem was first written in 1885 by Christina Georgina Rossetti. The poem has been set to several different tunes over the years – and this one is based on a Traditional Irish Melody. Will has created a sweet, gentle version to be rung on three bell trees! It is lovely and filled with expression. If you do not have three bell trees available – it could be split up among more ringers, each holding a string of bells – and will work beautifully for ‘spatial ringing.”  5 octaves of handbells needed (C5-C8)/

Ensembles must purchase the number of copies needed for each ringer.
