What Child Is This?
$5.95
A Rich Heffler Music arrangement. This piece begins in a plaintive manner and in turn is joined by the soloist in an extraneous Celtic-like statement. The piece continues in a somewhat straight forward manner of the tune, again in a Celtic-like style. The rest of the piece continues constantly weaving in and out and around the embellished melody until it concludes with one final statement coming to rest.
