My bell choir played at the 3 traditional services on Sunday and I asked Joel to record it so people could hear our Christmas song. We had a great time getting this piece ready - there is a lot going on in this song (regular ringing, chimes, mallets, drum & tambourine). The musical arrangement is terrific and includes quite a few bell techniques!

Wonderful piece--yes there is a lot going on..and as a former bell ringer I know how hard it can be to keep it all together for an entire song! Well done!
