I’ve added Ed Hartman’s Marimbells of Christmas to the station’s rotation. This CD is mostly handbells and other non-traditional instruments. One really nice touch is that the CD liner has notes on each song, such as its history, or a description of the instruments you will hear. “Carol of the Bells” includes bells, chimes, crotales (tuned cymbals), marimba, vibraphone, timpani and small percussion. You can hear some samples of this CD at Blue Jay Live Music.
