Review:
Bold and lively, with extensive use of the thumb damp technique for a driving, percussive sound, this arrangement of the well-known tune is just plain fun! Written for just twelve handbells between F5 and C7 and no bell changes, it can be played by anywhere from three players using four-in-hand up to six players each holding two bells. This tune is also available in the collection "12 Bell Americana".
Purchase of this piece, either in hard copy or site license format, entitles the original purchaser to make as many copies as necessary for purchaser's sole use. Permission is also granted to broadcast or live stream performances.
