Description

This hymn title is also known as Piae Cantiones and PERSONENT HODIE. The opening section is played entirely by mallets on tabled bells. This gives way to a single, alternating, sixteenth-note figure. At this point optional choir chimes enter on the melody. Only 7 chimes are required – they range from G4 to G5. Only 50 measures long, this work is a good challenge for a level II choir.
