This delightful, joyful original composition is based on the words of Psalm 150. The psalm text is printed above the handbell part as a creative reference for the ringers and director. The main theme is presented by handchimes and singing bells in the slow, mystical introduction. An exciting, driving rhythmic section follows, accompanied by tambourine, triangle, and suspended cymbal, with various handbell techniques, multi-meters, and key changes weaving in and out. A lush and lyrical section provides a calming respite, before a brief return to the mystical feel of the beginning. A grand, glorious ending makes this piece a must-have for the church or concert handbell ensemble.

This stirring anthem portrays the church at worship: gathering, giving thanks, greeting one another, offering prayers of confession and intercession, sharing in communion, making an offering, and going out together to serve. The bouncy, uneven melodic rhythm and the visual imagery of the text make this an ideal piece to choreograph for dancers and use with banners. Adding wrist bells to the dancers also accents the festive nature of the anthem.

An exciting musical drama based on the Exodus story. The play opens with a grand procession of slaves that disturbs King Pharaoh's quest for a good night's sleep. From that point onward, the action begins! The slaves get organized and Moses emerges as the leader of the people. The dialogue, spiced with humor throughout, tells with clarity and strong role characterization the story of the Exodus. The music includes lamentations of the slaves, a song cleverly portraying the plagues cast on Egypt, and a final song of triumph. Performance time: c. 30 minutes.
