The melody moves around from instrument to instrument in a conversation-like way, with rich harmonies and beautiful descants enhancing the melodies. The medley begins triumphantly in the key of concert F Major, moves soulfully to the parallel minor, then finishes brightly back in F Major. Christmas carols featured are:Ā· Joy to the WorldĀ· Good King WenceslasĀ· We Wish You a Merry ChristmasĀ· Deck the HallsĀ· God Rest Ye Merry GentlemenĀ· What Child is This?Ā· Ding Dong Merrily on HighI hope you will enjoy performing this medley as much as I have enjoyed arranging it! Audiences are sure to love it.
