The Twelve Days of Christmas has been a holiday favorite for a long time, so much so that there’s an annual update about the cost of a partridge in a pear tree, two turtle doves, three French hens… For the dedicated true love person, it details a serious financial enterprise!
Our arrangement for handbell trio, commissioned by St. Andrew United Methodist Church (Highlands Ranch, Colorado), is fun to play, has some little bits of humor/strangeness, and will make you and your audience smile!
