The Carol of the Bells is the most famous of at least four different Christmas carols that are based on the Ukrainian Bell Carol which is part of a large choral work called Shchedryk by the Ukrainian composer Mykola Dmytrovich Leontovych (1877-1921). It was first performed by students of Kiev University in December 1916.The tune is an adaptation of an old ‘shchedrivka’, a song traditionally sung on Ukrainian New Year's Eve (January 13th) which hopes for good fortune in the year to come. In his lyrics for Shchedryk, Leontovych refers to the legend claiming that when Jesus was born, all the bells on earth started ringing in his honour.Available parts:Part 1 FlOb Kl B/Es S-Sax Trp Part 2 Cor Ang Kl B Alt-Kl A-Sax Trp Hrn Part 3 Alt-Kl T-Sax Fg Hrn Pos Euph Part 4 B-Kl B-Sax Fg Pos Euph Tuba Kb
