Review:
This duet was written as a showpiece for the
BellTree Duo. It uses 8 bells played four-in-hand and requires advanced 4-in-hand technique. No tables are needed. The recommended version in D major uses 4 octaves of bells. An alternate version in C major (included) uses only 3 octaves. Written on a single line, this may necessitate some marking of music and careful attention to keep each ringer's bells straight. Measures total 18, but a repeat stretches the piece's length.
