Joy!

The simplicity of the vocal lines and lyrics of this piece are almost deceptive. That is, until you hear the goosebump level grandeur of the recording. Then, it's quite clear that this is meant to be B-I-G! Even if you perform it as a unison piece, as long as your students sing out with... well, joy... it will be fabulous. The song is perfect for Christmas or holiday performances but could be used any time.

There are three vocal parts, including one that is written in the bass clef for your lower, changing, or changed voices. Parts 2 and 3 are optional. Other options that will add to the overall majesty include the addition of bells and/or hand drums. The lines for both of these are indicated on the piano/vocal score so you can see how it would all work together. The kit also includes a track with bells and hand drums with the accompaniment, in case you want to use this as a bells feature without singing. Several other rehearsal tracks are also included.
