Review:
Kurt Meyer's beautiful and gentle setting of the hymn tune IRBY is a wonderful choice for your small ensemble this Advent or Christmas! Utilizing just 12 bells between F5 and C7 with no bell changes, it can be played by anywhere from three players using four-in-hand up to six players each holding two bells, making this selection a perfect choice for the small or socially-distanced group. Piano accompaniment is optional.
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.
