Review:
"Holy God, We Praise Thy Name" is an arrangement of the hymn tune GROSSER GOTT utilizing just 8 bells, F5-G6. It may be rung with two people playing 4-in-Hand or four people in a small ensemble with 2 bells each. The piece is a moderate tempo with a lightness. The first statement is simple and straightforward, the middle section has the forward motion of eighth notes, and the final section is a fuller embellishment on the melody. All notes are rung and no tables are needed. 92 measures in the key of B-flat Major. This piece is available in an alternate key for those who prefer to play the piece with more standard handbell assignment positions (most spaces in the left hand and lines in the right hand) under the title "Holy God, We Praise Thy Name (Alternate Key)".
Permission is granted to the original purchaser of this music to make sufficient copies for their musicians. May NOT be duplicated for multiple groups.
