For SABar and piano Higgins's arrangement of the popular German carol is given a modern twist with fresh harmonies, but still captures the gentleness and tranquility found in more traditional settings.

In the tradition of lullabies past, “Lie Still and Slumber” encompasses the soothing comfort of angelic voices with tender words like those of this text by Isaac Watt. Delicate and smooth, this piece recreates the rocking of a cradle or a mother’s arms through the rhythmic sway created by the rising and falling of the arpeggiated accompaniment.

3-5 octave handbells with optional cello - Grade 3

SKU: BP.HB514

Arranged by Lloyd Larson. Handbell choir music. Handbell score. Beckenhorst Press #HB514. Published by Beckenhorst Press (BP.HB514).

3-5 octave handbell choir, optional cello, level 3. This graceful arrangement of two well-known hymns will find a place in church services and concerts throughout the year. A fanfare-like opening leads into a grand statement of the FINLANDIA tune, which gives way to a thin and delicate verse of It Is Well with My Soul before returning for a triumphant chordal ending with the original tune. The optional cello provides a beautiful contrasting sonority to the bells.
