Bell Choir Picks

"One of the pieces I like best is Carol of the Bells. It's a fun piece to play and great listening. Many friends have remarked how much they enjoy listening to the music. My son came from San Diego to hear the music, and thoroughly enjoyed the bell's pieces."
- Lili

"The bell choir piece I enjoyed the best was Jesus, Jesus, Rest your Head. It symbolized the Christmas season for me, quiet and spiritual."
- Ellie

"My favorite piece was Jesus, Jesus, Rest Your Head. It was so peaceful in it's rhythm that it put me in a peaceful and relaxed mood. "
- Bridget

"How Great Our Joy is my favorite. I love the changes in tempo and key, the accidentals, the crescendos and that fermata. It's just like Christmas - sometimes hectic and crazy, sometimes quiet and reflective and sometimes, you just want to pause."
- Cecille

"I like the first song we played before mass, that I made Francesco let us play again at the end of mass, because it was challenging, having a variety of rhythms, tempo changes, and key changes. It was also a very exciting piece."
- Claire

"...the piece that had my solo entry, that was the one I liked most."
- Audrey
