Review:
What fun!! "Three Blind Mice", "The Itsy Bitsy Spider" and "This Old Man" - cleverly arranged for 8, 9 or 10 bells for a light moment in a concert or to lead a sing along. Each short well-crafted Level 2 or 2+ arrangement is set in 4 different ranges for 1, 2 or 3 octaves to accommodate singing range, the range of bells available and the needs and numbers of your ringers (2, 3, 4 or 5 ringers). They are ideal for challenging more advanced ringers using Four-in-Hand and for performing in smaller spaces without tables (each piece is diatonic – no bell changes - though you will have to change out bells from piece to piece). “8-10 Bells for Kids’ Songs” is also great for easy “no set-up” mobile outreach ringing in schools, street fairs, retirement communities, hospitals, in-home concerts, pop-up sessions, etc. The sound clip uses 8 bells: F5 to F6. Check on more 8-Bell folios (Advent, Christmas, Spirituals, Lent, Easter and more) as well as small collections in the “Celebrations” series from ringTrue Handbell Music: use the Music Search Assistant and click on the specific Series at bottom of the page at www.handbellworld.com
