This popular holiday tune has had many iterations. In this unique grade 2 version, its three main themes are arranged in a new and somewhat altered way, with the familiar melodic and rhythmic motifs passed around each section of the orchestra, resulting in a beautiful musical fantasy on the iconic carol. This piece has easy rhythms, 3/4 time throughout, keys of “e” minor and “a” minor, some accents, pizzicato, and 2 note slurs. Piano is optional.
