Arise My Soul Arise

Arise My Soul Arise


Finnish Folk Song, arr. Boatright, Linda, From the Top Music

Johan Kahl was a Swedish hymn poet, who wrote over 50 hymns before he tragically drowned at the age of 25. His poem, "Arise, my soul, Arise! Stretch forth to things eternal ..." was set to a Finnish folk tune, but only in the last half-century has it been included in several hymnals and arranged for vocal choirs. Linda Boatright has taken this simple tune and created a beautiful, sophisticated arrangement for handbells.

California Here I Come

California Here I Come


DeSilva, Buddy; Meyer, Joseph; and Jolson, Al, arr. Tucker, Sondra K., From the Top Music

However, it has been used frequently in a wide variety of settings – and here, Sondra has created a delightful and completely accessible arrangement for handbells. The bass is mostly malleted, and her creative treatment of the melody, dynamics, and the dancing, upbeat tempo will make this a wonderful staple in your concert repertoire!
