Published by Hope Publishing - Digital (H1.2844DP). Medley of Christmas Carols This Advent setting is intended to reflect the wonder and mystery of the birth of Jesus.

Handbells handbell choir (3-5 octaves) with optional 3 octave handchimes - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: H1.2603DP Arranged by Paul A. McKlveen. Christmas, Sacred. Handbell score. 12 pages. Hope Publishing - Digital #2603DP. Published by Hope Publishing - Digital (H1.2603DP). Popular French Carol Ring We Now of Christmas cleverly blends the popular French carol, Noel Nouvelet and the classic Ukrainian carol, commonly known as Carol of the Bells, to create a musical offering that reflects the excitement of the Christmas season. The rhythmic alteration of the French carol gives a fresh take that will be enjoyed by both ringer and listener alike. Additional color and interest is added through the use of optional handchimes, various bell techniques (TD, RT, PL, LV, SK, and martellato), and a key modulation from C minor to E minor and back.

Handbell - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1284588 Composed by American Folk Song and Scottish Folk Song. Arranged by Mark R Lewis. Celtic,Folk,Irish,Traditional. Score. 8 pages. Mark R Lewis #875763. Published by Mark R Lewis (A0.1284588). This lively Sea Shanty Medley is a combination of two different sea shanties, Fish in the Sea from Scotland and Santiana from the Americas.Fish in the Sea is quite simple but has dozens of verses. It takes the form of a chorus that is identical every time and a verse that describes various fish. The idea being that everyone would sing the chorus and each individual sailor would basically ad-lib new lyrics when it was their turn to sing a verse.Santiana actually tells the story of the Mexican General Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna during the Mexican-American war in the 1840s. However, the various exploits described in the song have very little to do with historical reality. There are of course dozens of version of the song, each associated with different shipping lanes, and there are even a wide variety of shanties from other countries that seem to be adaptations of this tune with different stories.This arrangement by Mark Lewis is for 3 to 5 octave handbell choir and makes extensive use of both malleted and normal ringing techniques. There are some very quick transitions between the two techniques. The piece moves along at a pretty good clip with some portions in 6/8 and others in cut time with various duplet and triplet patterns to help with transitions, leading to a difficulty rating of 4+. While the piece should be playable by most intermediate groups, they will definitely need to put in enough practice time to perform it properly.Season: ConcertRange: 3-5 octaves.

Walz (A0.767633). This BEGINNING HANDBELL CHOIR piece has a lovely melody. Some bells play harmony, so let the melody come through every time. This is Maestro’s favorite advent carol, for as he frequently recalls, I sang a solo in ‘Come, Thou Long-Expected Jesus’ when I was in a renowned boy choir many years ago. I understand, from Maestro, there wasn’t a dry eye in the house. I’ll reserve comment on that one! This one-octave piece has bells that range from G4 – F#5.  For church, school, or civic organizations.  Key of A, two pages, 1:22 minutes performance time at 90 bpm, but it can be taken faster or slower.

Then for a contrasting challenge, an exposed lyric section with a sensitive melody emerges, giving your ensemble a chance to shine musically, and lyrically.
