Carol of the Bells This version of Carol of the Bells is a new take on a traditional carol. The Ukrainian Bell Carol, which has become an important part of the American holiday tradition, was originally composed by Mykola Leontovych with lyrics by Peter J. Wilhousky. In this arrangement, the flexibility of the instrumentation allows it to be played with as few as five wind or string players, and the various recognizable motifs are passed around the ensemble, giving everyone something interesting to play. Chambers incorporates energetic grooves with the bass line and percussion, as well as a new B melody that adds extra technique and a fresh sound. Please enjoy Carol of the Bells on your next holiday concert! Note to the Conductor: Use this piece to introduce or reinforce the following musical concepts: Steady pulse in a driving 3/4 meter, definition of ostinato, accidentals (minimal), and Syncopated feel (minimal).
