Review:
Handbells, ranging from D5 - C7 and playable by 2-5 ringers, are scored as additional accompaniment to this special rendition of G.F. Handel's "Hallelujah Chorus." Several performance options are given, including a unison melody for the congregation. The handbell part, which is printed on the back of the choral score but is also included the brass parts if using brass, basically consists of octave ringing and long shakes yet adds a nice touch. A major "practical" feature is the key of C Major--one step lower than the original! This anthem is 94 measures.
