Review:
The Alpha Series is accessible music for 2-3 octaves of handbells of interest to a wide age range. It follows the same pattern as the others in the series; the pieces have some techniques, such as swings and shakes, a little syncopation and a few eighth notes and few, if any, page turns. These pieces could be played on chime or bells. This version on grace contains "Grace Greater Than Our Sin" and "Amazing Grace".
