combines 3 or 5 octaves of handbells with C instrument and optional keyboard. Flute is preferred but any C instrument will do. The bell part is fully scored and is skillfully woven with the other instruments. In measure 43 Handel's "The Rejoicing" appears with imitation between the flute/keyboard and bells. This piece provides a good opportunity to ring a familiar hymn in a fresh ensemble setting for bells. Measures total 81.
