Review:
3, 4, or 5 octaves of handbells ring for the majority of this setting of a text from Psalm 46. The bell score is full and in a chordal texture, which helps support the strong message of the text. This piece is a great way to include bells in the bigger ensemble of SATB choir, congregation, and brass quartet. Measures total 103.
