Three iconic American Christmas carols arranged for two violins and a cello. Each instrument has a melody part which makes this arrangement appealing to performers. The march-like Go Tell It On The Mountain gives way to a gentle lullaby-like Away In A Manger, The cello pizz providing a gentle sense of rocking. The tempo picks up with Jingle Bells, leading to a slightly less predictable, but satisfying, final cadence. The performance duration is close to four and a half minutes and the full score has individual parts attached. Some phrasing has been suggested, but as always, use your discretion. This arrangement is well suited to high school string players and church music groups looking for new repertoire across the Christmas season. .
