Review:
Brian Childers' evocative arrangement of this beloved tune is a true delight! An opening interplay between bells and the optional flute depicts the titular bird before giving way to the melody on chimes. The counterpoint between the flute and bells continues through various moods, styles, and techniques to the serene ending. This arrangement is not to be missed! 92 measures in the key of C Major.
Note: The flute part is printed at the end of the handbell part; please purchase an additional copy of the music for your flutist.
