Bourree for Bells No. 1

Review:      This Bourree is from Bach's Partita No.1 in B Minor for Solo Violin, BWV 1002. Several staccato techniques including marts, thumb damps and plucking are used along with an extended passage of mallets on suspended bells. This arrangement works equally well for 3, 4 or 5 octaves of handbells. Measures total 69.
