Review:
John Edwards’ tune RHOSYMEDRE is the basis for this lovely arrangement usable during Lent, Holy Week, or any time throughout the year. An original, flowing melody, alternating between the bells and the piano, softly weaves in and out through the main hymn tune.
SOLO version: This 2-octave solo may be played on bell tree or rung from the table by omitting the cue-sized notes. Uses 12 bells from C5 through G6.
DUET or TRIO version: This 3-octave duet or trio features no shared bells. Duet uses 15 bells from C5 through C7; trio uses 22 bells from C4 through C7.
The downloadable mp3 accompaniment tracks are compatible with both the solo version and the duet/trio version. The solo version is also included in the collection
Sacred Solos for Bell Tree, Set 1: Lent, Easter, Pentecost and General Hymns (
