Review:
“8 Bells for Advent” is perfect for 2, 3 or 4 ringers. Each short L2/2+ carol ("O Come, O Come, Emmanuel"; "Savior of the Nations, Come"; and "Prepare the Way, O Zion" – each with no bell changes) is offered in 4 different ranges, depending on which bells the ringers want to use: C5-C6 for 1 octave groups, D5-D6 to keep space notes in left hand, F5-F6 for 2 octave groups, and C6-C7 to allow for lighter bells and 4iH options. Play one or all three in worship, concert, outreach venues like home and hospital visits, fund raising, on parade floats and even in flash mobs. Check www.handbellworld.com for more 8 Bell pieces (Spirituals RE4003AD and Christmas RE4002D), as well as other pieces in the “Celebrations” Series for smaller ensembles.
