Review:
This is a handbell adaptation of the anthem,
"Rejoice in the Lord Always".
"The Bell Anthem" is a nickname received because of the cascading figures in the original strings imitating the peal of bells. This arrangement is full with dotted-eighth-sixteenth notes. Tempo changes throughout add to the complexity of the work. Measures total 149.
