Written for 3 to 5 octave handbell choir and 3 octaves of handchimes. Level 3-. Written in memory of the September 11 terror attacks, Philip Young's original work is a haunting piece full of aching and loss. A melodic prayer is underscored by original harmonies and a moving eighth note line that propels the piece inexorably onward. Frequent use of handchimes helps bring out various lines in the music. A worthy musical choice for the ensemble looking for something different.

Written for 3 to 6 octave handbell choir. Level 3-.Sondra Tucker has combined the tunes TRURO and STUTTGART into a joyous song of praise! A straightforward opening in 4/4 times gives way to a driving section in 7/8 before moving on to a more expressive mood. The joyous feeling returns to round the piece out in grand fashion!
SKU: BP.HB656
Written for 4 to 7 octave handbell choir. Level 5. Karen Lakey Buckwalter's masterful original composition is infused with lush, chromatic chords throughout. A yearning and haunting melody passes on to moving eighth note triplet arpeggios which propel the piece forward. The original melody then returns in a more complex and fleshed-out form, before more triplets once more push the piece ahead. A final section marked With Fire! drives the piece to its final, resounding conclusion. A true tour de force suitable for any ensemble looking for a musical challenge.
