Handbell - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1307875 Composed by Nicholas Jacques Lemmens. Arranged by Paul W. Allen - Bronze:FX. 19th Century,Classical,Romantic Period,Wedding. Score. 8 pages. Bronze:FX #897135. Published by Bronze:FX (A0.1307875). “Endless Fanfare� is a transcription of an original organ toccata composed by the Parisian organist Nicolas Jacques Lemmens. In the style of a French suite, this piece may be condensed or expanded to fit nearly any performance situation. Played quickly and without repeats, it builds to a satisfying climax. Taken at a more moderate tempo and with all repeats (including an unwritten but implied optional DC from the end of measure 78), “Endless Fanfare� may continue forever.The arrangement is for full choir using 3, 4, 5, or 6 octaves of handbells, and the piece is Level 3 when played with a full complement of ringers.All stopped sounds are left to the director's discretion, depending on the performance context and personal taste. The bass must provide a solid foundation, but never be overbearing. Plucked sounds would create a sharp accent and quick decay; malletted sounds should be much softer; martellati would be quite harsh.Exceptional skill and endurance is required of the F5+G5 and A5+B5 ringers, who must maintain a contant but subtle off-beat pulse throughout.The tempo must remain steady and without rubato, until the final two measures.Performance time:  4 minutes.
