Handbell 3-5 Octaves
Arranged by Linda R. Lamb
Level: 3
Arranger Linda Lamb treats the simple praise chorus theme by Jerry Sinclair in a variety of textual ways. First an obligato played by mallets on suspended bells occurs followed by a chordal section, then a key change and a flowing, eighth-note accompaniment. An optional part of 16th note figures appears in the next passage before entering the last section with syncopated chords in the bass, melody in chimes in the middle and a countermelody to top things off. A total of 62 measures, this piece is arranged in F Major, Bb Major, and C Major.
