Review:
Here is a bright and energetic original composition for 3 to 6 octaves of handbells from Arnold Sherman. The piece features rhythmic figures throughout that are to be clapped by the ringers, adding a unique element to its presentation. Another option is to play the rhythmic figure with mallet clicks or tambourine. To heighten the effect of claps, it is recommended that the ringers perform the piece without gloves. Measures total 92.
