Carol of the Bells (AmberSky Classical Guitar)
This is my instrumental classical guitar interpretation of Giuseppe Torrisi’s fingerstyle guitar arrangement of the popular holiday tune “Carol of the Bells.” Carol of the Bells was originally composed in 1916 by Ukrainian composer Mykola Leontovych (1877 - 1921). In 1916 it was known as Ukrainian folk chant “Shchedryk” and was for ushering in New Year’s celebrations. In 1936, American composer Peter Wilhousky (1902 – 1978) rearranged “Shchedryk” and wrote lyrics for it. “Shchedryk” then became known as the popular Christmas tune “Carol of the Bells.”
The Christmas and holiday pictures in this video were taken in the charming historic downtown area of Galena, Illinois.

Carol of the Bells (Lyrics)
Hark how the bells, Sweet silver bells, All seem to say, Throw cares away
Christmas is here. Bringing good cheer, To young and old, Meek and the bold, Ding-dong, ding-dong, That is the song, With joyful ring, All caroling (Oh, oh, ah), One seems to hear, Words of good cheer, From everywhere (From everywhere), Filling the air, Oh, how they pound (Oh, how they pound), Raising their sound, O'er hill and dale, Telling their tale, Gaily they ring, While people sing songs of good cheer, Christmas is here, Merry, Merry, Merry, Merry Christmas, Merry, Merry, Merry, Merry Christmas
On on they send, On without end, Their joyful tone, To every home, Ah, ah, ah, Ding-dong, ding-dong, Ding-dong, ding-dong, Hark how the bells (Hark how the bells), Sweet silver bells, All seem to say (All seem to say), Throw cares away (We will throw cares away), Christmas is here, Bringing good cheer, To young and old, Meek and the bold, (Bringing cheer, oh), Oh how they pound (Oh how they pound), Raising their sound, O'er hill and dale, Telling their tale, Gaily they ring, While people sing songs of good cheer, Christmas is here, Merry, Merry, Merry, Merry Christmas, Merry, Merry, Merry, Merry Christmas
On on they send, On without end, Their joyful tone, To every home, Ah, ah, ah
