Review:
Selected for the 12th International Handbell Symposium in Brisbane, Australia, 2006, this arrangement is a set of variations on "Sakura", the popular Japanese folk song. Though there is no printed level on the cover, the music falls within the level 4/5 parameter with sixteenth-note rhythms, varying textures, grace notes, etc. Totaling 95 measures, the piece concludes with a bang!
