Arranged for 3 to 7 octave handbell choir, optional 3 to 5 octaves of handchimes and optional 3 octaves of auxiliary bells. Level 5. The opening of Brian Childers' arrangement of this well-known melody builds slowly in intensity and complexity to the introduction of the tune, which appears in a fantasia-like setting. The accompaniment gives the lilting feeling of being on the sea, and the harmonies keep everyone on their toes. After a playful iteration of the theme, a slower, ethereal section appears with Joy to the World played delicately on optional auxillary bells such as Whitechapels or Silver Melody Bells. The main theme returns in triumphant style at the end for a grand and glorious conclusion!

Arranged for 3 to 5 octave handbell choir and optional 3 octaves of handchimes. Level 2. This lovely arrangement of the hymntune ST. MARGARET is a joy both to play and to hear. An opening section of rising bell peals gives way to a flowing melody underscored with undulating eighth notes. The bass take over the melody on handchimes, accompanied by the echo technique on bells. A key change leads to a grand final verse, which slows and eases into a final, delicate chord.
