Volume 3 in the Ring w/6 Year-Round Series The latest in our series for 6 ringers. These 8 arrangements can be played by only 6 people. Because there are more than 12 bells used in each piece, there is more harmonic diversity and tables may be necessary. A perfect set to provide a year of music with a smaller ensemble.

Hymn tune This setting of the hymn tune LOBE DEN HERREN captures the exuberant adoration expressed by the text of this popular hymn. It should be played with great energy and excitement to bring forth the praise contained in each stanza. The subdued second verse uses softer dynamics and mallets, and the partial third stanza employs chimes, providing a change of mood from the opening. A meter change, key change and quickened tempo combine to provide a vivid contrast, and bring the piece to its triumphant conclusion.

Arranged for 4 or 5 octave handbell choir with an optional B-flat 2 and G2. Level 4. A free and ethereal opening gives way to hurried, almost desperate sixteenth notes in this masterwork from Hart Morris, written in honor of Fred Gramann. A syncopated melody ensues, accompanied the entire time by the same frantic sixteenth notes. The mood gradually slows and becomes more hymn-like before the emergence of a final, triumphal verse of the hymntune LOBE DEN HERREN (Praise to the Lord, the Almighty). A grand challenge for any advanced choir looking to showcase their talents.
