The Shepherd's Bell Carol

By Diane Hannibal & Michael Barrett

Bright and lively, this original anthem has the feeling of a middle-European folk song. Incorporating NOEL NOUVELET, the piano and percussion bring the vibe, adorning the catchy minor melody with colorful timbres. In troubadour style, the text tells the story of faithful shepherds looking for their lost sheep. The second verse uses an ostinato to create a rustic folk band with vocal sounds instead of instruments.
