Longfellow's text is set with additional words and music by Ruth Morris Gray and the piano accompaniment is based on Pachelbel's Canon in D. Together, it creates a sweet choral singing ding dong gently above the verses with use of an optional descant as well. A mature and meaningful selection for developing choirs.

Three traditional carols are tastefully arranged and tied together with Pachelbel's enduring canon. Optionally, choir members may play sleigh bells during the interludes between Jingle Bells, to Deck the Hall, and Jolly Old Saint Nicholas. Elegant, simple, familiar, memorable!

Johann Pachelbel's Canon in D has long been one of the most popular classical pieces, and has already been connected to Christmas through various setting of the piece. In this arrangment, the Canon is combined with popular Christmas carols as part of the fabric of the piece. Carols like Hark, the Herald Angels Sing and The First Noel fit nicely over the harmonic progression of Pachelbel's famous canon. This arrangement will work nicely with band alone or with the option to include choir (CM9401).
