Description:
In this new arrangement of the time-honored English carol, the men are the first to be heard singing the familiar melody over the piano's methodical drone. The women's lilting voices follow, accompanied by what sounds like distant chapel bells. An original chorus is a joyful addition, as are the canonic treatment of the second verse, the fresh harmonies of the a cappella third, and an optional bell choir at the end.
