"News of Great Joy" is a reproducible collection of five Christmas carols set for 8 handbells or handchimes and piano. Since there are no bell changes, each ringer has only two bells to ring in each piece, providing plenty of options for ringing during the Christmas season. Handbell tables are not necessary and it is possible to ring these pieces without the piano when one is not available. Piano part included. See list below for titles included.
