Review:
Aram Khachaturian's famous work is here arranged for 4, 5, or 6 octaves by Martha Lynn Thompson, one of the masters of transcribing other genres of music for the bell instrument. What you'll need: mallets, a metronome that goes to Presto (quarter = 144), a working knowledge of 16th note rhythms, and a seat belt (just kidding). However, your ringers will certainly get a workout on this challenging, but fun masterwork. 110 quick measures!
