This piano duet rendition of the "Ukrainian Bell Carol" is a sure-fire audience winner. Written as free variations, the traditional melody undergoes several transformations---from a lighthearted polka to a brilliantly intense, virtuosic finale. Along the way, the players navigate crossed-hand playing, scales, trills, arpeggios, octave passages, exciting rhythms, and changes of meter. Audiences will enjoy a number of other musical surprises.
