3-5 Octave Handbells
Arranger: Brian J. Heinlein
Level: 2+
This festive setting of WIE SCHÖN LEUCHTET begins with a simply stated melody in the bass and a cascading treble-bell peal. This is followed by a meditative middle section featuring continuously moving eighth notes. Large, full chords and bell shakes make for an exciting ending. Scored for 3–5 octave handbells. Level II+, 87 measures. Keys of Eb Major and C Major.
