Written for 3 to 5 octave handbell choir. Level 3-.Karen Buckwalter has artfully combined three lesser-known Christmas carols into one gorgeous medley worthy of a spot in any Advent or Christmas service. The changes in texture, as well as the movement from bells to chimes and back, keep the piece interesting throughout. Intermediate ensembles will find just enough challenge to grow as musicians, while advanced ringers will enjoy the ability to enhance their expressive playing.

Sondra K. Tucker has written the impassioned Seasons of Life, for three to five octaves of handbells. This memorial piece is both hauntingly beautiful and powerfully life-affirming. Though marked a level four, most choirs capable of ringing a level three piece ought to be able to work this one up with a modest effort, and the result will be well worth it. Mallets and singing bell are used sparingly throughout, but always to good effect. Perfect for a memorial service or general use. 3-5 octaves level 4.
SKU: BP.HB597
Arranged for 3 to 6 octave handbell choir and optional 3 to 4 octaves of handchimes. Level 3+. From a simple opening statement of the well-known Irish folksong, this arrangement deconstructs the tune on a journey through a wide-ranging and unexpected harmonic progression that ultimately wends it way back to the opening key. A more recognizable iteration of the tune on chimes ensues, which builds to a triumphant climax before fading away once more. A new and exciting take on an old favorite.

SKU: BP.HB633
Arranged for 5 - 7 octave handbell choir. Level 5. Written by Getty H. Huffine. This tour de force is a perfect choice for the advanced ensemble looking to highlight their bass section in a challenging, acrobatic escapade. Constant scales and moving lines; repeated, fanfare-like treble chords; and a blisteringly-fast tempo make this a piece not to be undertaken lightly. The overall effect is well worth the effort, however, and is sure to delight and amaze your audiences!
