Pendaneni - Love One Another
Pendaneni is a Swahili word meaning "Love One Another", which is given as a subtitle. This African-inspired original composition is happy and joyful, with easy-to-learn, repetitive rhythms, and many fun handbell techniques, like martellato, martellato lift, malleting, mallet rolls, thumb damp, and shaking. The optional added percussion makes this piece even more enjoyable, and the parts can be played on either African or Latin American instruments. This flexible and very accessible work can be played by both 2-3 or 3-5 octave groups, separately or together, and is perfect for worship, school, or concert.
