Review:
Need music for patriotic holidays but don't want to carry cases of bells and equipment? These settings of six patriotic tunes fit the bill and use only eight to eleven bells! The tunes arranged include: "The Star-Spangled Banner" (nine bells with a suggestion of using only eight); "America" (eleven bells and suggestions for using only eight); "America, the Beautiful" (ten bells and suggestions for using only eight); "Yankee Doodle" (eight bells); "Battle Hymn of the Republic" (eight bells); and "Battle cry of Freedom" (eight bells). Special handbell techniques are minimal, but may be added as ringers wish.
