Sing We Now of Christmas was a fun recording project for us! This arrangement of the NOËL NOUVELET hymn tune was written for the Carillon Choir at Third Reformed Church of Holland, and they played it for a Christmas Eve service. We decided to put together a recording of our own!
The useful thing about Sing We Now of Christmas is that, with a quick change of title (and maybe no red accessories), it can become Now the Green Blade Riseth. Two playing opportunities for the price of one, and perfect for a spring or Easter worship service.

Buying Choraegus handbell music
When you purchase handbell music from Choraegus, the music score will come to you as a PDF file. That means you’ll be responsible for printing your own music, and you won’t receive anything in the mail. When you’ve downloaded your music, your one-time payment (for the full-choir copy) entitles you to print up to 15 copies for your group. Please read our licensing agreement for full information about this. If you’re new to buying music from Choraegus, we recommend our step-by-step guide. We designed this to take you through the process in a (we hope) stress-free way!
Purchasing this arrangement gives you no-fuss permission for performance, broadcasting, live-streaming and online video-sharing. Please take some time to read about what you’re allowed to do with Choraegus handbell music. In these times of live-streaming and online worship services, it’s particularly important that we all understand and follow the laws concerning performance licensing and copyright.
