Product Description

Ukrainian composer Mykola Leontovych wrote this carol, now heard in shopping malls everywhere, in 1914. He based it on an old Ukrainian folk song. It started out in pre-Christian Ukraine as a song to celebrate the new year, which started then with spring in April. With Christianity and the Julian calendar, the new year moved to January, and then its original lyricist -- the song was written for a choir -- added stuff about bells and carols, and it migrated a few days earlier to become a Christmas standard.
This arrangement is for two trumpets, horn, baritone TC and tuba. If you'd like alternative instrumentation, I'm happy to accommodate. Contact me at wilcor@aol.com.
