Review:
Martha Lynn has worked her magic in creating an arrangement with a lot of flexibility. It is mostly Rung with only a few stopped techniques and the occasional Shake. This setting is written in C major. There are several different performance options, some of which are listed below with others suggested in the Performance Notes. This will be an amazing addition to your handbell repertoire!
Option 1: 3 octaves of bells and 3 octaves of chimes
Option 2: 4-5 octaves of bells with 3 octaves of chimes
Option 3: a massed ringing setting with both 3-octave and 4 to 5-octave groups, with or without the 3 octaves of chimes
Option 4: using another C instrument in lieu of the hand chimes ... the flexibility is endless!
