Review:
For years, the hymn tune TRURO has been a wonderful way to announce the Risen Christ on Easter morning, and this arrangement for 3 to 5 octaves handbells and optional 3 or 4 octaves handchimes doesn’t disappoint! Filled with exciting techniques such as shakes, marts, mart-lifts, mallets and echo rings, both ringers and congregation will be swept up in this triumphant celebration. Alternatively, this hymn tune can also be used during Advent and Christmas under the title, “Lift up your heads, ye mighty gates” in anticipation of the Newborn King.
