Review:
This elegant Joel Raney/Arnold Sherman arrangement combines the familiar hymn tunes BEECHER and HYFRYDOL in a stunning ballad for 3-5 octaves. With very few bell changes, this setting allows for an accessible, lovely addition to your handbell repertoire, capturing the essence of the beloved hymn text: "Love divine, all loves excelling, Joy of heaven, to earth come." Be prepared for a workout in syncopation! A total of 75 measures, this medley is arranged in F Major.
