Description

Small ensemble music for 1.5 or 2 octaves handbells with or without keyboard.

The purpose of this collection is to offer a wide range of performance options when you may have more or less ringers and could possibly use a keyboard to add fullness if desired. These reproducible arrangements have been set for use with or without keyboard and with or without bass clef ringers. They can be performed with 12 bells in the treble (from C5 - G6), or with the addition of the bass clef for a full 2-octave ensemble sound. The general hymn titles are perfect for year-round ringing in any concert or worship service.
