Review:
Kurt Meyer's arrangement of "To Jesus Christ, Our Sovereign King" is a moving and lyrical tribute to the hymn tune, ICH GLAUB AN GOTT. The familiar melody is given a very melodic and polished treatment, both in its steady structure and also by the tasteful use of embellishments unique to the handbell instrument. For 3, 4, 5 or 6 octaves of handbells with optional 3, 4, or 5 octaves of handchimes. Level 2+.
