A simple but transcendent setting of the chant tune CONDITOR ALME SIDERUM, this movement from Kneeling in Bethlehem begins with men in unison against a handbell ostinato. The second stanza is women in unison with organ. The third stanza is full choir in unison, with organ and bell chords punctuating occasionally. The remaining two stanzas are also in unison, with the final one set against full organ and random ringing. Requires 11 bells out of the four octave range.

Erik Routley in The English Carol describes the fifteenth century Coventry Carol asperhaps the simplest and most beautiful of all the lullaby carols. Carlton Young retains these qualities in an expressive and poignant setting for SSA voices and handbells appropriate for Christmas, Epiphany, and Holy Innocents (Matthew 2:13-18). Handbells (5 octaves: 31 bells).

Carl Smith has created a delightful and easy arrangement of the fourteenth-century carol Resonemus Laudibus, an ancestor carol†to the familiar In Dulci Jubilo. The joyous melody evokes the pealing of bells and is supported by the organ’s harmonic accompaniment.
