Karen Buckwalter's mysterious and beautiful arrangement of three Christmas carols - "Away In a Manger," "There's a Song in the Air," and "The Holly and the Ivy" - is the perfect way to evoke the wonder of the season. From its haunting opening with mallets on suspended bells (with the option to play them on a bell tree) through a dance-like middle section and on through a creative combining of melodies, the piece will engage your audience and your ringers. Be sure to add the optional wind chimes, hand drum, tambourine, and finger cymbals for optimal effect. 3-6 octaves - level 4
Percussion part include in the handbell score.
