I Heard The Bells On Christmas Day is based on Longfellow's poem I heard the bells on Christmas Day, their old familiar carols play, and wild and sweet the words repeat, of peace on earth, good-will to men! This tune was made famous by Casting Crowns. The piece is arranged as a late intermediate treble C instrument duet with piano accompaniment and it includes a separate instrument part. (Approximately 4:30, 12 pages) You can look at other arrangements by Sandra Zylstra on Sheet Music Plus: https://www.sheetmusicplus.com/publishers/Sandra-Zylstra-sheet-music/3001855?aff_id=584183 and at Piano Pronto: Composers Community https://pianopronto.com/composers-community/sandra-zylstra/
