Review:
Joel Raney explores the world of handbells combined with synthesizer and percussion in this captivating setting of the well-known Gaelic melody. Featuring lilting melodic figures and gentle rhythms, this setting for 3-7 octave handbells has options to include synth or organ, 3-7 octaves of handchimes as well as triangle and wind chimes. Sure to be a big hit with ringers and the congregation, the work is set in F Major and D Major and is 154 measures.
