Carol of the Bells

Description

This version of the holiday classic Carol of the Bells, based on the Ukrainian chant "Shchedryk," features all players in various roles. The percussion has an extended mallets trio section, where all the wind players rest and it is the percussionists time to shine. Lots of percussion colors are explored with each player required to play bells, xylophone, and vibes. This is something a little different at Christmas time---a modern, rhythmically interesting version that is fun to play and listen to.
