Dwayne Engh

The simple setting of this well known tune was done in 1995, which was my first year of working with thepercussion ensemble at Vincent Massey Junior High School. I had quite a few problems finding musicsuitable for their level of development, so I wrote a simple arrangement for them for the Holiday Season. Wewere lucky enough to have an Elementary School as a feeder school that had hand bells, so the optional handbell introduction was written. The piece was performed the following year with the University of CalgaryLab Band Percussion Ensemble (a class for music educators to get practical experience working withbeginning band students) without the hand bell introduction – although it adds a nice texture and sets themood very well, the introduction is not necessary for the success of the piece. At the performance with theUniversity of Calgary Lab Band Percussion Ensemble, Crotales were used for the Bells 1 part.

hile written for Junior High, many of the members were relatively advanced for only one or two years ofplaying. Because of this, the arrangement has also been used with two different High School PercussionEnsembles with success.
