Emerging treble choirs love to sing Jingle Bells, so it is my hope that this setting with limited ranges, repetitive patterns and a rhythmic ostinato proves to be a fun journey for the choir. As you work through the piece, here are a few guiding points: 1. The soprano ostinato throughout should be rhythmic and accented. "Jing" should go straight to the "ng" sound. 2. In contrast, the alto melody should be sung in a rhythmic, legato style. 3. The piece offers an opportunity to work melodic versus accompaniment balance between parts. 4. In a similar manner, in the call-and-response verse (mm. 29-39), parts should be equal in their dynamics.
