This two-movement composition for handbell or handchime choir offers the beginning ensemble many learning opportunities. Both movements are appropriate for worship services and festivals. "Entrata" is a slow movement in common time. "Exuberance" is an energetic contrast in 3/4 time. Performance and learning suggestions are given along with a bio on the arranger Margaret Tucker. Measures total 60.
