Arranged by Sharon Wilson. Children,Christmas,Easter,Instructional,Standards. Score and parts. 8 pages. Sharon Wilson #3260069. Published by Sharon Wilson (A0.565045). The familiar hymn tune HYFRYDOL is here presented as a Christmas song with the title Come, Thou Long Expected Jesus. This arrangement is equally appropriate during the Easter season or other times of the year when associated with alternate lyrics such as Alleluia! Sing to Jesus!This sheet music is notated for 8-note, C major diatonic scale (one octave) instruments with Handbells on one staff and BoomwhackersÂ® on a second staff creating a 2-part instrumental ensemble (requires one set of each instrument). Handbells play the melody while the BoomwhackersÂ® keep a steady beat with three-note chords. Included in this set of scores is a combined score with both instrument parts on a grand staff plus a separate score for each instrument. A note and chord reference chart is also provided.Though this sheet music is notated for Handbells and BoomwhackersÂ®, this song is playable by any 8-note, C major diatonic scale (one octave) instrument such as a xylophone or glockenspiel. The melody could also be played with soprano or alto recorders.This set of scores uses black and white noteheads and is best suited for musicians already familiar with reading standard music notation. For beginning musicians, this same set of scores is available (sold separately) with color coded noteheads.Only filled noteheads (quarter and eighth notes) are used so the notes are easier to see (this does not indicate the bells need to be silenced immediately before the next beat). Also, only quarter rests are used to help visualize the number of beats per measure. Lyrics and chord names are provided as well to aid in the learning and teaching of this song. The number of ringers and whackers needed will vary depending on the skill level of the participants. For more advanced players, each person could be assigned two or three notes. For beginners, it is best to assign one or two notes to each person. Instrument assignment suggestions are provided for 8 and 11 players.
