This traditional Christmas favorite features stylistic Baroque trademarks such as a running bass line, clear texture and three-part polyphonic voices (often reduced to two-part-such as the quote from J. S. Bach's famous Musette). Other Baroque characteristics featured are pedal tone and concerto grosso contrasts. The use of open strings and simple slurs make playing easy for groups from second to advanced levels. Perfect for your next holiday concert. |
