The piece starts by engaging the audience to a riff that isn't instantly recognisable. The glockenspiel enters with the Carol Of The Bells ostinato as the piece begins to grow in volume and instrumentation. There's a sudden drop in dynamics before all the percussion instruments crash in to create a huge audio and visual effect! Carol Of The Bells is a Christmas classic. Its 4 note ostinato is well recognised throughout the world, and instantly has you feeling festive. The versatility of this carol is endless, and has been adapted into many different genres throughout it's time.
