Review:
Each of the 3 verses of this duet features the same notes in the melody and harmony, but in different octaves. The chimes add a contrasting timbre. This makes it easier to learn and interesting to listen to. Advanced duet techniques are required. Key of E Minor. 40 measures.
This version utilizes string orchestra accompaniment. For the
unaccompanied duet, see
item # RTHB259. The handbell duet part is the same for both versions.
Included: full score, 2 handbell parts, violin 1 & 2, viola, cello, and string bass parts.
